Our Mission:
The Baltimore Free Store promotes reuse and recycling to help alleviate the traumas of poverty and to involve communities in working together to meet their needs. 

Our Vision:
We envision communities forged through relationships based on mutual aid and cooperation. We use the distribution of free items as a catalyst for change and as a way to demonstrate what can be done when communities work together. We envision a society where relations are not based upon individual greed, consumption, and private ownership  but a society where individuals are empowered towards the creation of sustainable and cooperative communities. To this end we encourage recycling and reuse as a means to counteract excessive waste and consumption within our society. Our vision for the future means empowered, stronger communities and the creation of a healthier Baltimore City.
