Charitable Alliance Network (CAN) Definition

Charity Works provides charities and other non-profit entities (“nonprofits”) with access to significantly discounted prices on a broad range of products and services through its Charitable Alliance Network (“CAN”) program. Through the development of beneficial networks and strategic alliances, people enjoy collaborative action that helps create value and reduce operating costs.

The CAN program directly benefits nonprofits by providing the following purchasing advisory services:

• Matching needs with product specifications/service requirements
• Locating qualified vendors/suppliers
• Negotiating contract terms
• Purchasing consultation

The outcome of the CAN program is a collaborative process whereby the public and private sectors work more effectively and efficiently together in serving humanitarian causes and thus relieve government of administrative burden.

Annually nonprofits in Florida and throughout the United States benefit from the services rendered under the CAN resource finder program.
