Call for the Offering:     The Sharing Locker
The Sharing Locker is one of Westminster’s outreach projects, having been in operation since February 2010.  We reach out to anyone in Washington or Kent County, as well as Cranston residents who are experiencing a need for assistance with non-food products and/or pet food.  The Sharing locker is, by design, closely aligned with our Westminster vision and mission.
