Give Something Back Business Products
Give Something Back Office Supplies (GSB) is an Oakland, California based, for-profit business, was established in 1991 by Mike Hannigan and Sean Marx to sell business products for less while donating some of their profits back to the community in the form of charitable contributions. GSB has strong catalog and e-commerce operations, which cater to small businesses and corporate clients. In its first eleven years, Give Something Back amassed over 13,000 customers and contributed nearly three million dollars to charitable community organizations chosen by its customers and employees. The company is now the largest independent office supplies dealer in the Western United States.
==Business model==
Beginning in 1991, the founders of Give Something Back envisioned a business plan for the firm based on an existing model, that of Newman's Own food products, a business model pioneered by actor and activist Paul Newman. Since incorporation in 1993, GSB has grown from being a local, Northern California business to the point where it has expanded its operations nationwide. Whereas Newman's Own has continued to donate 100% of its profits to charities since its inception, GSB usually donates a small percentage of its after-tax profits to Community Based Organizations (CBOs), thereby allowing greater flexibility for expansion, reinvestment, and other business and philanthropic opportunities. Even so, the firm contributes almost 10 times the national corporate average to philanthropic causes.
