About this organization
Mission
Share Our Spare seeks to disrupt cycles of generational poverty by collecting new and gently used essentials for children ages 0-5 including diapers, wipes, baby care items, baby gear, clothing, books and toys. We then redistribute these items across Chicago and the surrounding counties through a network of over 30 agency partnerships, reaching over 6,000 children each year. We help turn your extras into the EXTRAordinary!
