The Long Beach Free Store

As a project of the Catalyst Network of Communities, the Long Beach Free Store serves as a physical space for people to share what you have and find what you need. It is currently housed inside of the Catalyst Space (our community center in the East Village Arts District in downtown Long Beach) and operates with its own store hours. It is run entirely by volunteers. If you would like to help out or take on a volunteer shift to help the Free Store expand its hours of operation, contact freestore@gocatalyst.org.

One of our goals for the Free Store is that it would catalyze a conversation about what it'd be like for people to share resources. Some people are excited about the concept. Some people are cynical about the concept. But the reality is that neighbors can share what they have and find what they need. What can you do?
