As nonprofits struggle to find affordable warehouse space, Philly Reclaim in Tacony announced that everything is free to take because the store is closing. The offer of doors, sinks, bathtubs, lumber, and other materials has drawn hundreds of people.
Most Philadelphians, Greg Trainor noted, have little need to own hulking power tools used for woodworking.
Still, the price was right. The organization tried to work out a deal to stay but wasn’t successful, and Trainor ran out of time to find somewhere else. The Tacony warehouse is the nonprofit’s third home in eight years. But for half a year, the organization could not guarantee deductions for donors. So that business stopped. And the organization also could not raise funds or apply for grants.
“Nonprofits are typically getting shut out or are at a significant disadvantage in that competitive landscape,” said Paterno, who is representing several nonprofits looking for space.
