One of the greatest challenges to re-users and recyclers is finding a common ground to share items. Now sweeping the nation by storm is the freecyclers. Freecycle is a yahoo group that may be in your area too. Free to post and free to request, you post your wants and needs to your local group. We have given away many clothes, toys, grass clippings and even a broken T.V. someone needed for parts. We have received craft products, games, kids clothing and shoes as well as home decor items. Things that would have ended up in the landfill, were left on the porch with my name on it. We were even able to freecycle our dryer that died to a serviceman that fixes them up for the needy.
If you haven't checked all ready, go to yahoo groups.com and search for your local freecycling group. You will be able to give away things that others are needing, and feel good doing it.
