Free mini-libraries began to appear in Fayetteville, Arkansas. They are lockers where anyone can put a book and take to read those that are there. Here is such a simple exchange, writes Big Picture.
Local resident Jessica McClard became interested in what is the secret of their popularity. 41-year-old woman said that, in her opinion, such selfless actions create an opportunity for the manifestation of good neighborliness and the identification of social problems that do not disappear, even if we do not face them every day. And then Jessica came up with the idea to go a little further and create Little free pantry (“Small free storeroom”).
She established the first storeroom near the Lutheran church. Her idea was very successful. Now the project has more than 10 thousands of subscribers in Facebook, and small storerooms appear in other places.
