FREE the NEED is a community based all-volunteer nonprofit corporation dedicated to the distribution of surplus food and clothing to needy families in San Francisco, surrounding Bay Area communities, and Siskiyou County. It began its operation in June of 1989 with a group of friends who were interested in improving the welfare of others in their area.
WE BELIEVE:
There are enough resources available for all
of us to have everything that we need and want.
We all have surplus of something in our
lives - food, clothing, furniture, shelter,
money, time, and love.
By giving away our surplus to those in need,
we receive more toward our own
happiness and fulfillment.
Join us in the celebrating our
20th Anniversary
FREE the NEED is currently raising
$40,000 to purchase a new van.
