Kindista helps you share with people nearby

Looking for a plot to garden in, or someone to landscape your yard? Wishing for a dog walker, or offering mural painting skills? Desiring a

giant bookshelf, and have a file cabinet that you’d like someone to take?

Kindista.org is an online network that helps you share offers, requests, and gratitude with people who live nearby.

It’s easy and free to use, and is run by volunteers as a 501(c)(3) non profit organization. Kindista is funded entirely through donations to its parent organization, the CommonGoods Network.

From their site, “Make connections with people who can help you lead a more abundant life through the culture of sharing. Because sharing is good!”
