IRN’s mission is to keep usable surplus furniture and equipment out of American landfills, by matching them with nonprofit organizations to be reused where they are desperately needed for disaster and poverty relief, in the U.S. and around the world. Working nationwide with colleges and universities, independent and public schools, hospitals, and corporations, IRN is the largest and most respected provider of this service in the United States. Since 2002, IRN has placed some 65 million pounds of usable surplus for reuse by over 100 nonprofit organizations across the United States and in more than 50 countries in the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia, helping to improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of children and families across the globe.

Before founding IRN, Mark was recycling coordinator and head of planning and community assistance for the State of New Hampshire. He was responsible for outreach and networking, promoting commercial sector recycling, market development, and developing the State’s first statewide plan to achieve a legislated 40% recycling target. In earlier work, Mark was a consultant to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other public and private clients in solid and hazardous waste and energy issues. He graduated from Dartmouth College and has a Master’s degree in Ecosystems Research from the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
