Community Gearbox is a startup aiming to disrupt consumerism by offering is a niche social platform for friends, family, and colleagues to share and distribute the things they have with the people they love. It creates a system of lending and borrowing that allows our communities to collectively reduce our carbon footprint, exit wasteful patterns of individual consumerism, and strengthen our relationships.
