Welcome back GFZ's!
Today's blog is about yet another eco-go-getter from right here on the Sunny Coast who has created a platform called Lendy.
Lendy is a platform where you can borrow and lend everyday equipment, furniture, appliances, or anything you’d like locally, so you don't have to buy new! Clever right? It's like having a neighbourhood treasure chest at your fingertips. Plus, it isn't just a smart financial move—it's a step towards a more sustainable, connected world. By sharing what we already have, we can reduce waste, save money, and build stronger communities.
For lenders:Got a drill gathering dust? A tent taking up space? Lendy lets you turn these dormant darlings into cash. Simply create an account, list your items, and start raking in the dough when your neighbors borrow them. It’s as easy as snapping a few photos and waiting for the requests to roll in. Plus, you get to play the hero by helping out someone nearby. Cape optional.
For borrowers: Need a tool for a weekend project? Or did you realise you would never use that chain saw once the house is finished? Why buy when you can borrow? With Lendy, you’re just a few taps away from borrowing that item that will save you money & space. Just search, request, and enjoy your item. When you’re done, return it and leave a review.
Reduces Waste: By borrowing instead of buying, we cut down on the production of new goods, which means less waste and fewer resources used. Every time you borrow an item, you’re basically saving the planet.
Fosters Community: Lendy brings neighbours together, fostering a sense of community and cooperation. When we share, we connect with those around us, building a network of trust and support. It’s like a social network, but in real life and with actual benefits.
Saves Money: Sharing items means everyone saves money. Lenders earn a bit of extra income from things they already own, and borrowers save by not having to purchase items they only need temporarily. It’s a win-win for your wallet and the planet. Cha-ching!
Encourages Mindful Consumption: Lendy promotes a shift away from the ‘buy-and-discard’ mentality. By encouraging people to borrow, Lendy helps us all become more mindful of our consumption habits and the impact they have on the environment. Less is more, folks!
Whether you’re looking to earn extra income or save money by borrowing, Lendy is your go-to platform for smart, sustainable living. Sign up today and join the waitlist for early access to the Lendy app. Together, we can build a greener, more connected world—one lend at a time.
Join Lendy's waitlist here (it will launch soon), and be part of the change!

Much love,
