GIFTe-

Promoting the GiftEconomy

“You make a living from what you get, but you make a life from what you give”

GiftE offers an alternative to monetary exchange where goods and services are gifted to people in your local community without contemplation of reciprocity. It's like a TradeMe for free stuff, shared between people in your neighbourhood.
