Welcome to a New Kind of Support for Gift Shops that Give Back

At Purchasing Power Plus, we’ve spent over 30 years building community and connection between retailers and vendors who care. Now, we’re taking that mission further.

Retail with Purpose is a new initiative designed to uplift and support hospital and pharmacy gift shop buyers—wherever you are in your journey.

Whether you’re a longtime PPP member or just discovering us, Retail with Purpose is our way of expanding access to inspiration, tools, and peer support thoughtfully crafted for the unique world you navigate every day.

Why We Created This

We know hospital and pharmacy gift shop buyers wear many hats. You’re juggling inventory, volunteers, limited space, and tight budgets—all while serving your community with heart.

Retail with Purpose is here to meet you where you are, with:

  • Bite-sized education sessions
  • Real-world merchandising tips
  • Buyer-to-buyer conversations
  • Tools and resources tailored specifically to your space

This isn’t about adding more noise—it’s about delivering meaningful, practical support you can truly use.
