TWO-INGREDIENT TOMATO SAUCE
Donations over the past 4
years have included cloth-
ing, furniture and food, but
what most members and
administrators of the group
love is when someone gives
their time and talent to help
another person. The lead
administrator of the Facebook
page, Anah Harvey, said she
has seen offers of many kinds,
including raking leaves and
child care.

“People give for a variety of reasons. It feels good to
give and it’s fun. It’s also nice to declutter or downsize

The group does not give
on a fi rst-come, fi rst-served
basis, but insteads lets post
“simmer” before deciding on
a recipient. Harvey said this
gives people who aren’t online
as often an opportunity to
reply to gifting posts.
“The gifter can choose who
they give it to for any reason,
but sometimes we like to
play games, like choosing a
number or asking about your
favorite color,” she said. “That
is how we are building com-
munity.”
The offi cial boundary for
the La Grande-centered
group is a 20-mile radius.

growing membership, Harvey

included.
“People give for a variety of
reasons,” Harvey said. “It feels
good to give and it’s fun. It’s
also nice to declutter or down-
size your belongings. Some-
times it’s easier to let things
go when you know they will
be used and appreciated. I
also think people have an un-
derstanding of how receiving
a little help during a diffi cult
time can make a huge differ-
ence in someone’s life.”
