Wishlist FAQ
Quick answers to common questions about the Community Wishlist and how to use the wishlist app.
What is the Community Wishlist?
It is a neighbor-to-neighbor gift sharing project for Munhall, Homestead, and West Homestead. Anyone can add things they need or browse what others are wishing for. Everything is voluntary and community run.
Who can participate?
Anyone in Munhall, Homestead, or West Homestead. No forms, no income requirements, and no gatekeeping.
How do I add wishlist items?
Create an account, click your list, then the plus button on the bottom right. You can then paste a link or enter the item details manually.
Can I add items without a link?
Yes. Just enter the details of the item manually, and include info on where to get it in the description.
Do I have to give or get something?
No. You can make a wishlist without claiming anything, and you can claim items to give withot adding anything to your own list. Just be sure to delete your list if you are only giving.
When is Exchange Day?
Exchange Day is on Saturday, January 17th, 2026 from 1–3 PM at the Carnegie Library of Homestead.
Where is Exchange Day?
The first Exchange Day will be held at the Carnegie Library of Homestead, located at 510 E 10th Ave, Homestead, PA 15120.
Why is the Exchange Day in January?
We had the idea a little late in the holiday season and most community spaces were already booked. January ended up being the best fit for availability, planning time, and giving everyone a chance to join in without the stress of December. It also lets word spread naturally so more neighbors can take part.
What if I cannot attend Exchange Day?
You can still join in. Click the envelope at the top to coordinate with J & Lou. We can meet you earlier to collect items you claimed and who they are for. Your gifts will be brought to Exchange Day on your behalf.
Are there rules for wishlist items?
Keep things reasonable and community friendly. No weapons, nothing illegal, and nothing dangerous. Practical or joyful items are all welcome.
Is my information private?
Yes. Only a name, an email, and your wishlist items are stored. There is no tracking, no analytics, and no advertising.
