On the end of last year I was moving from east Croatia (Osijek) to dalmatian coast. Because I have so many things that I couldn't take with me because of many reasons Earwen and I came up on idea how can we give this stuff to others in need.
We made this page named "ShareWorld" https://www.facebook.com/Share-World-Svijet-bez-novca-609109625809584/timeline/ and see what will happend.
People buying every day things they need and the one that they don't need. So many stuff and not so much real needing. Also, I'm very mad how this world works, production make things to last less to force us to buy another stuff. Our homes are always full of stuff that we don't need or we don't need in this moment. I figure out that we could share things that we don't need and also get from someone else what we need in that moment. In that way lot of us could share the same stuff for long time and not buy another. For example, children always want so many things, guitar or synthesizer, but that need usually don't last for long time. If you bought synthesizer and your child is not interested in that anymore you can share this with someone that has a child that is "dying" to have a synthesizer. And for some time, he could give to another child and etc.
I didn't expect much from this, we had many likes everyday but very little feedback what is kind of usually in this world, right? Also, we couldn't find a way, legal law, to protect people from bad people that, perhaps, resold the goods that we or someone else gave them. Or perhaps, what is much worse that someone says that he will just pick up some stuff from you and then bring group of people that will rob you.
But, there was some very nice and good experiences from this. When someone came to my apartment to pick stuff they need from my collections (books, easel for painting, games for children like picado) they was so confused, like they can believe that someone will give them stuff for free. I felt something beautiful in my heart in those moments. Some of them couldn't came empty hands so one woman bring me full bag that smelled beautiful of lavender.
Now we are living far from big cities and we don't have a opportunity to continue our idea. Also, everything stops, at least far as we know, when we went away. For some reason people like every day our page, but nothing is happening.
I was wondering do you have some kind of charity or sharing in your organization that I could contribute?
