About Us
Stooping Club is the world’s first student-led FREE online chain store. We collect donations and stoop curbside finds to benefit community members. By diverting useful items from landfill to good homes, we foster a circular economy, help people save money, and conserve our planet’s natural resources. Stooping Club empowers youth around the world to fight consumerism and climate change.
