Free Store Coordination Pledge Form

Organise Your Free Store with a Digital Pledge Form

Free stores, tool libraries, and community sharing initiatives are reshaping how we think about consumption and waste. If you're coordinating a free store, swap event, or gift economy project, this Free Store Coordination Pledge Form helps you rally community support, track volunteer commitments, and gather the resources you need—all in one place.

Built with Paperform, this template lets you create a welcoming, on-brand pledge form that reflects your values and makes it easy for community members to step up. Whether you're running a pop-up free store, a permanent sharing space, or a neighbourhood gifting network, this form gives you a clear picture of who's in, what they can offer, and how they'd like to contribute.

Perfect for community organisers, sustainability advocates, and grassroots groups

This template is designed for organisers of reuse and gift economy initiatives—neighbourhood mutual aid groups, environmental collectives, library of things projects, swap meet coordinators, and anti-consumption advocates. Use it to:

• Gather pledges from community members to donate, volunteer, or spread the word
• Coordinate volunteers for setup, sorting, event staffing, and teardown
• Track donated items and skills people can offer to support the initiative
• Build community by collecting contact details and availability for future events

The form includes conditional logic so people only see questions relevant to their level of involvement, keeping the experience streamlined and welcoming for everyone from first-timers to seasoned organisers.

Automate follow-up and keep your community connected

Once someone submits a pledge, you can use Stepper to automate what happens next. Send personalised confirmation emails, add pledges to a community contact list in Airtable or Google Sheets, trigger reminders closer to event day, or route volunteer sign-ups to a scheduling tool. You can even send different follow-up workflows depending on how someone chooses to contribute—whether that's donating goods, volunteering time, or simply pledging to shop the free store first before buying new.

This keeps your coordination lean and human-centred, so you can focus on building the community, not chasing spreadsheets.

A form that reflects your values

Paperform's flexible design tools let you style your pledge form to match your movement's vibe—whether that's earthy and grassroots, bold and activist, or warm and neighbourhood-friendly. Add photos from past events, embed a video explaining your vision, or drop in your manifesto as introductory text. The form works beautifully embedded on your website, shared via social media, or sent directly to community WhatsApp groups and email lists.
