Other tips:
-Bring items early
to ensure they find new
homes. If you can't make it until the last minute, post
items online or contact us for local charity info.
-Please don't bring items heavily covered in Pet Hair--many people have allergies.
-Add a note to unusual items to let others know how they might use them.
-No drugs, weapons or adult items please!
What some satisfied “shoppers” have said about our FreeMeets:
“It was great to see my stuff walk away with people.”
“Great opportunity to find office supplies for Eco Non-profit!”
“Great stuff! Let’s do it more often!”
“I loved it. It’s the right way to handle the situation of excess
material belongings.”
“Best city find ever. Proof that wandering the city streets is not a fruitless
prospect.”
“Wish it happened every weekend.”
“Thanks so much! - From a single mom and 13-year old daughter about to
go to camp (needed clothing).”
“I explained why we came, to gather up kid's jeans and sweaters appropriate
for back to school [because] many parents spend grocery and rent money for back
to school shopping…I ended up with a "committee" of helpers,
and … we made it halfway to our goal of 100 pairs of jeans…! Thanks
to the Volunteers…we are people who strive to make our world a better
place.”
