GAIN has established a consistent record of enabling not-for-profit agencies to significantly lower their costs on the core supplies and services needed to run their organizations. The savings realized remain current and increase as agencies utilize more aspects of the program, and we monitor every sector of the marketplace to ensure that our offerings continue to be the best they can possibly be.

The Group Acquisitions Initiative Network (GAIN) was established in 1996 to support and assist not-for-profit organizations across Canada. Today we are the sector’s largest and most successful affinity program. Our clients include hundreds of Agencies and Associations, their Staff and Volunteers - all benefiting from the program.
 
The result has been that our members are more sustainable and better able to serve their communities. They have reinvested their savings in programs and services, improved employee retention through enhanced benefits and more efficient working environments. The Staff and Volunteers of member agencies also benefit from the access to savings on an increasing number of product and service offerings.

How do we do it?We ensure that whatever we offer is on the leading edge - in terms of the best suppliers, price structure, service and value added features.

We accomplish this through a process that involves monitoring all the service sectors our providers represent, and utilizing our power in the marketplace. If the market shifts, GAIN shifts in front of it.

We ensure member satisfaction.

We accomplish this through scheduled service calls to Members, and by encouraging them to call us with any issue or question. We will also act on their behalf, should it become necessary. In those situations, we are not just representing that Member; we represent the entire program and its tremendous purchasing power. Our providers value their continued participation in the program and as a benefit, GAIN is able to give agencies leverage they would not otherwise have.

We monitor every sector of the marketplace daily, so you don’t have to!
