The Sharing Shed

The Sharing Shed We serve families and individuals who are recovering from a crisis. We are a 501(c)(3) organization helping fragile families in the Tri-County area.

The Sharing Shed provides furniture and basic household items to clients with referrals from local agencies, churches and organizations. We serve families referred to The Sharing Shed by appointment only at no cost to them. The Sharing Shed helps over 25 families a month begin a new life. These families include those that have been displaced due to loss of employment, are fleeing abusive situation

s, are coming out of homelessness, or are recovering from a number of other hardship situations. We recieve donations of gentle used furniture and household items from families and busnesses in our local community. All items are then sorted, cleaned, organized and presented in a boutique like setting. The work is all done by many groups of volunteers. These volunteers recieve and process donations on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9am-11am. Other groups serve on Saturday mornings from 9am-11am and Wednesday evenings from 6pm-8pm. These groups help families pick out their furniture and household items, and help load their items into their vechicles. We also have groups of volunteers that pick-up donated items as well as deliver items to families that can not provide their own transportation.

A huge thank you to John Schultz for nominating The Sharing Shed to receive a grant from Spectrum!

Because of his support and belief in our mission, The Sharing Shed was awarded a $1,000 grant to help cover delivery costs for families in need.

One of the biggest obstacles many families face is transportation for larger household items like beds, dressers, and kitchen tables. These funds will help us deliver those essential items to families who otherwise would not be able to receive them.

Your generosity is making a real difference. We are excited to put these funds to work helping families get back on their feet by delivering hope, dignity, and essential household items when they need them most. โค๏ธ

Thank you for the shout out! We love being part of Community Council of St. Charles. They have been a wonderful partner in helping The Sharing Shed build connections throughout the community so we can better reach and serve families in need.

We truly feel blessed by the relationships and partnerships that have grown through this organization and are grateful to work alongside others who care so deeply about our community.

๐ŸŒŸ MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: The Sharing Shed ๐ŸŒŸ

A proud member of Community Council since 2018, The Sharing Shed has been restoring hope, dignity, and stability to families in crisis for more than 20 years.

What began in founder Vicki Unser's garage in 2001 has grown into a community-wide ministry that has helped more than 2,500 families rebuild their lives. Through partnerships with local churches, schools, agencies, and organizations, The Sharing Shed provides furniture and household essentials to individuals and families recovering from homelessness, domestic violence, natural disasters, financial hardship, and other life challenges.

Their mission is to bring the community together to meet the needs of those in crisis, while planting seeds of love and hope throughout St. Charles, Lincoln, and Warren Counties.
From a bed to sleep on to a table where families can gather again, The Sharing Shed helps transform houses into homes and offers a fresh start for those who need it most.

Thank you, The Sharing Shed, for the incredible work you do and for making our community stronger every day. โค๏ธ

Thank you to everyone who came out, played, cooked, donated, sponsored, and supported The Sharing Shed. This is one of our main fundraisers and helps us continue serving families in our community during difficult times.

When families cannot provide basic household items for themselves, The Sharing Shed is there to help lift them up, support them, and help them get back on their feet. We are so grateful for a community that continues to rally behind this mission.
