As a nonprofit, you’re always looking for creative and effective ways to raise funds and awareness for your cause. In today’s digital world, online fundraising is essential, and merchandise offers a fantastic opportunity to engage your supporters and generate revenue. But, managing inventory, handling production, and shipping orders can be a real headache. That’s where print-on-demand (POD) comes in.

What is Print-on-Demand?

Print-on-demand is a fulfillment model where products are printed and shipped only after a customer places an order. This means you don’t have to invest in bulk inventory upfront, saving you money, storage space, and headaches. No more worrying about unsold items taking up space in your office! POD providers have vast product catalogs, allowing you to diversify your merchandise offering with classics like custom t-shirts, sweatshirts, and mugs, as well as trending products like tech accessories and pet products.

Also, the Wiedemann-Steiner Syndrome Foundation has curated a catalog of top-selling items, leveraging their logo to engage supporters, and deliver products that donors wear with pride.
