Founder's Story
One day, William was walking his dog when he stumbled on a pile of household items lying on the curb. Looking closer, it was a jumble of perfectly usable dishes, Legos, books, crystals, and more, all for free. It was such a waste to see these really nice, valuable street treasures left out for the garbage truck.
Over the next two years, William devoted his free time to keeping useful items out of landfill and learning web design from YouTube. In junior year, he founded Stooping Club to share his deep passion for community service, thrifting and sustainability with his school. On October 20, 2023, William took Stooping Club to a whole new level by launching our website, where customers can “shop,” pick up, and donate preloved items at a centralized location. What started off as a hobby and school club has grown into a global student-run free recommerce chain store. Spend less, save Earth™!
