Goodbye NeighborGoods; Hello Favortree!

Dear Neighbors,

Our team has very big news that we want to share with you. After three amazing years, 25,000 incredible neighbors and over $4.5 million of inventory being shared, NeighborGoods.net will be shutting its doors. We would like to share what this means for you and your account.

Over the next three weeks we will be preparing for our shutdown which will be happening July 31st. We strongly encourage you to complete any open transactions by this date. After today we will no longer be accepting group subscriptions or account verifications.

Although this is goodbye for NeighborGoods we are excited to announce that members of our team have created a brand new sharing tool, Favortree. Favortree is a 'play it forward' trading game for universities, faith communities and local neighborhoods. Members can help each other by sharing goods and completing small favors. By helping your friends and neighbors, you earn rewards which you can exchange for help when you need it.

We would like to invite NeighborGoods users to pre-register for early access to Favortree. By pre-registering for Favortree, you will be among the first to try it out! You will also be given the opportunity to import your NeighborGoods inventory.

We can’t possibly express our gratitude for all that this community has done for us and for each other. Thank you for your continued support over the last three years and through this transition.

The NeighborGoods Team
