Welcome, to the Charlotte, NC, Freecycle™ Group! Our goal is to reduce waste by offering things we no longer need to those who can put them to good use. Please let your friends and family know about the group; the more the merrier. Membership is free and open to anyone with an interest in reducing landfill size and helping others at the same time. Non-profit groups are welcome to join. Freecycle is an ecological movement. Think Green in 2011! Freecycle is... * about keeping things out of the landfill. * about sharing an item that retains usefulness. * about clearing out unused clutter. * about COMMUNITY. Here are a few things to remember: Everything posted must be FREE, No SPAM, and keep it suitable for all ages, please. This network is brought to you by The Freecycle™ Network, a nonprofit organization and a movement of people interested in keeping good stuff out of landfills. There are many other local Freecycle™ Network groups in the area, both in NC and SC. You're encouraged to find a group near you. Type http://www.freecycle.org in the search box, and choose from the ones presented. * Please read our Guidelines BEFORE posting to the group*
* We have a community message board: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Charlotte_Chat_Cafe to share information on community and neighborhood events, activities, yard sales, and freebies. * Since our members voted to put pet posts on a separate site, we have created: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Carolina_Pet_Adoptions. Please be very cautious when using any public forum to re-home a pet. PLEASE DO NOT USE craigslist! It's a haven for abusers and collectors who will sell them to labs and dog fighting rings.
