About

What is Favr@Columbia?

Favr@Columbia is a campus-sharing community, where the verified Columbia students connect to share goods and services. Favr@Columbia prioritizes the integrity of the community by preventing unidentified individuals to join and post fraudulent listings. 

Our mission is to build an inclusive community by doing favors.

I am Jason Park, a Columbia alum working in financial services. A group of friends and I started the Favr project to prove our belief that favor-based communities make our lives richer; the environment more sustainable; society more inclusive. We built Favr@Columbia for the students to not only share quality goods and services but also build an inclusive and community. If you want to be part of the initiative, please contact me:

"Authentic abundance does not lie in secured stockpiles of food or cash or influence or affection but in belonging to a community where we can give those goods to others who need them and receive them from others when we are in need. ... Community doesn't just create abundance—community is abundance."

- Parker J. Palmer
