Sharing Is Giving is part of a growing number of locally and independently owned free community groups where members post items they no longer need, and want to give away or items they would like to receive for free.

The goal of Sharing Is Giving is to reduce landfill waste. To achieve this goal, we need to build a strong local community. A strong community develops when we are considerate of one another.

This list is for people in or around the Capital District-Albany area. When joining please let us know your General location. Upon membership approval, you will receive an email welcoming you to the group, and familiarizing you with our few basic rules. Please read over this email prior to posting.

We hope you enjoy your Sharing Is Giving membership! Tell all your friends! There are many groups around, and there is sure to be one in your area! For a complete list of local groups, or for more information on starting a SIG group in your area, please visit http://www.sharingisgiving.org
