Sample messages to send to individual members, for many (if not all) occasions. Remember that your community's rules are your own - not necessarily the same as other Freegle communities - and that members appreciate a personal, friendly approach, not a corporate memo.

For messages you use often, add them to your Standard Messages for your community, and share them with the rest of your team.

Messages sent in response to Pending (or Approved) Offer/Wanted messages
