"Our mission is to help vets, their families, and the military community while providing affordable, high-quality office supplies to businesses and organizations of all sizes," says Ahrens. "Many folks have loved ones connected to World War II, Vietnam, or more recent conflicts; and we've all seen the news stories showing vets returning to face some serious challenges. We hope our contributions will help make a difference to the important folks who have helped serve our country."

With tens of thousands of products from popular, well-known brands, fromavet.com serves customers in hospitality, food service, health care, offices and factories, government, education, manufacturing, and even the home. Office managers, supply purchasers, and housekeeping and maintenance supervisors can purchase a wide variety of traditional daily cleaning, office, packaging, safety, food service, and industrial supplies, including an ever-growing inventory of green and sustainable products.

Fromavet.com ships to the lower 48 states and manages deliveries through a sophisticated nationwide distribution network. The company keeps prices low and expedites deliveries through an advanced supply chain management system that cuts waste while handling online purchasing, fulfillment, and shipping. The fromavet.com website also invites those in the military community to share their positive stories, which can help inspire and give hope to other vets and their families.

"Yes, the model is a bit different, and I love that," says Ahrens. "I've known many people who have come back from military action and find themselves struggling. So I believe we're offering an incredibly easy way for all of us to do a little good. Simply by purchasing the everyday office supplies and household items we all need anyway, we can collectively make a difference by helping people who really need it."
