donation options

[ukelele.livejournal.com]

I am trying to find a place I can donate my kid's old stuff (clothes, toys). The clothes are easy; the toys are not. Things which have failed thus far:
* Children's Clothing Exchange, Roosevelt Towers, Cambridge
* Goodwill
* Salvation Army
* 311

Will anyplace take this stuff, or am I doomed? Thanks.

I am really hoping for someplace I can take everything and be done with it (it's a lot of stuff), but I'll keep that in mind if I have no other options; thanks.

I wouldn't rule out Freecycle for someone who will take everything. When we were moving offices, I would post a bunch of stuff in one email, assuming I'd have to arrange pickups for individual items, and many times I'd get a reply saying "I'll take it all." Whether it was a random assortment of different things, or a whole bunch of one or two things (35 binders and 50 t-shirts? I'll take them all!). I always wondered what they were going to do with this stuff, but never asked. ;)

So who knows, maybe there's someone looking for a boatload of toys.

You can also say "priority to whoever will take the most stuff", or "please take all and freecycle what you do not want". Good luck:)
