Hello and Welcome, Aspiring Community Builders!


We believe a gift economy's real wealth is the people involved

and the web of connections that forms to include everyone.


Thank you for offering your community this gift!


We recognize each active Community Builder with a special badge,

so everyone in BuyNothing can see who you are.


Complete the Community Builder application below when you've shared at least 20 posts and 20 comments, and we'll consider you for Community Builder status.


We're always looking for people to join our volunteer Community Builder team, helping to guide their neighbors as they become a close-knit Buy Nothing community where generosity, acceptance, humor, honesty, empathy, compassion, and joy abound.
