We Have The Answers To Your Most Pressing Questions

What amount of savings can I expect from the CPG program?

How will these savings affect my bottom line?

Community health centers and nonprofits spend between 9% and 10% of their budget on supplies. Therefore, 18% to 20% savings will yield a bottom-line impact between 1.5% and 2% on your organization’s overall budget.
