food, blanket, and clothing donations?

I have some unopened canned goods, some unopened toiletry products, some lightly used, utilitarian but very warm bedding and two winter coats that I would like to donate. I checked on the Somerville Homeless Coalition website, and it seems that they would take the canned goods and toiletries, but only take new household items like bedding. Does anyone know of a good place that would take some lightly used blankets, sheets, comforters, etc., and also the winter coats?

The Material Assistance Program (https://afsc.org/program/cambridge-material-assistance-program), which is located near-ish to Harvard Square, is a great place to donate household stuff. Their website has a "wish list" of things that they accept. They serve as a clearinghouse for items for clients of homeless/human services agencies. Hope this is helpful!
