Columbus Dispatch: Online giving
Freecycle communities exist in more than 4,100 cities, including Columbus and 100 other Ohio municipalities and counties. If you want something, just send an e-mail to your local group asking for it. If you have something you don’t want, offer it up. Nobody pays for anything or trades for anything. It’s free. That’s a blessing for people who have fallen on hard times. Even those too poor to have a computer or Internet service usually can access the Internet through computers at their public library. Libraries are another blessing.
