$200

We're raising money to benefit the local Tucson Freecycle group AND to benefit Freecycle as a whole. If we can raise $200 among our group members, we will receive a package of promotional materials to use locally in order to get the word out about the network. We will also be contributing to the sustainability of the network as a whole, ensuring that the site will continue to operate with sufficient bandwidth and tools for all of us to freecycle!

The Freecycle Network

Overview

Simply put, Freecycle makes it easier to locally give items away on a cyber-curbside than it is to throw them away. In doing so, Freecycle members are keeping over 300 tons a day out of landfills as they "change the world one gift at a time." This is the equivalent of over four times the height of Mt Everest when stacked in garbage trucks in the past year alone. Freecycle.org has since been nominated to PC Mag's top 101 websites list and has become the largest recycling and reuse website in the world.

Mission

Our mission is to build a worldwide gifting movement that reduces waste, saves precious resources & eases the burden on our landfills while enabling our members to benefit from the strength of a larger community.

Programs

Our programs are globally local. Join a local Freecycle group to find out what's happening in your community. Membership is free and local group moderation is done by local volunteers. After you find your local group at freecycle.org, the gifting may begin. Have fun!

Impact

In the past year alone, The Freecycle Network has kept over four times the height of Mt. Everest out of landfills when stacked in garbage trucks! This represents hundreds of tons a day of good stuff. Help us continue this success and keep The Freecycle Network free for all with your support.
