Hey Everyone!
FreeMesa has been live for a little over a year now, and the growth has been pretty spectacular. We have grown from 1 community in one town to over 5,600 communities in 51 countries in just over a year! What's even more impressive is that it looks like we are right on target with our goal to help build communities and freecycle stuff.
We did some research into who is actually using FreeMesa to freecycle and find the free stuff they need, and the results were rather surprising. It looks like most of the users of FreeMesa are young families - most of our membership is female (71%), under 35 (60%), with children (76%). So when you post an offer on FreeMesa, chances are your item is going to a home that could really use it.
iPhones and Free Stuff!
Another thing that's pretty exciting is that our growth and success has not gone unnoticed. An organization that wishes to remain anonymous has donated quite a few brand new consumer electronics to FreeMesa. Including 2 brand new iPhones! We appreciate their support very much. We thought about the best way to share these with you, and thought it might be fun to have a contest. By sending invitations to join FreeMesa to your friends or by posting stuff to freecycle you will earn points. At the end of the contest (Nov 15th), the person with the most points wins an iPhone. Also, each point you have enters you in the drawings for the 2nd iPhone, 4 MP3 players, and 8 CD Players. In all we're giving away 14 different brand new items!
Remember, the more people you tell, the more families we can help! :)
Spread the word, and win an iPhone!
Cheers!
-Brian
