Share and Care

Inspiration

Every year, tons of usable items like clothes, books, and toys go unused in our homes, while many people nearby struggle to get even the basics. We wanted to change that. Share & Care was born out of the belief that small acts of giving can bring massive change—when supported by technology and shared by a community.
