Frenting-2

about us

  • Purpose   Why waste time, money, or space buying new stuff when you can have immediate access to a network of shared things? We hook up the people who need things with the people who have things.

    • Borrowing   From planning a party to renovating your house, most likely someone you know already owns what you need. We help you find what you need to accomplish whatever it is that you are doing.

    • Lending   Like everyone else, you’ve also probably bought something to use only once and now it’s catching dust on a shelf. Frenting puts your idle things to good use.

  • Community  The virtual groups in Frenting mirror the real-life groups that already exist in the world. We provide tools to enable sharing and keeping track of things among friends.

  • Environment   When goods are shared, we save the materials and energy used to produce more new products. Plus, you save both space in storage and money in your pocket.

  • Philosophy   Frenting is a “mutual contract of goodwill” between you and a friend. We strive to support and strengthen this connection. This website was originally made for sharing things among our own group of friends in the San Francisco Bay Area. But, we thought others might find it useful too. Hope you enjoy it. Happy Frenting!
