I was thinking about this. Basically, yeah, I have a ton of extra toys, clothes, etc. that I could give away. But what I was thinking about, was what about the people that had to refugee up here? They left their homes with very little, and have nothing left to go home to.

On Morgan Spurlock’s show on F/X 30 Days, they went to this “free store” for people that are indigent. I wonder if we could start something like that in the Nashville area for the refugees that are here. If we could get ahold of a parking lot, a storefront, anything, and could get the media to let the refugees that are here know where to pick it up, then we could donate stuff to people who need stuff, and be helping to do something at the same time.

Does anyone know how to go about this?

    I think it’s a good idea, but I don’t know how to do it. I guess i’m not much help, huh?

    Yeah, I have the same desire to share and start a “free store”.
