Freecycle
The Mission of Freecycle is:
Freecycle works by people giving away to those who are in need what they would have just throw away. For example, my wife and I, both poor students, just moved into a new house but we didnt have a microwave. On Freecycle we found that a member in our community was giving one away. We emailed them, they said we could have it, and later that afternoon we popped round and picked up the microwave.
Freecycle is a great and easy way of living a more sustainable lifestyles, building a greater community and applying Christian principles.
It is a non-profit organization with 4 million members and growing fast. Check it out!

"To build cooperativism is not to do the opposite of capitalism as if this system did not have any useful features... Cooperativism must surpass it, and for this purpose must assimilate its methods and dynamism."
