Hi. I want to donate some old stuff of mine that i don't use anymore to a charity. Movies, books, etc. I want a small charity that doesn't get a ton of money and that isn't very well known. Something that a friend started or something. Nothing that is avertized on tv. it should be one that helps kids in some way, and it needs to be located in NYC. I will totally do something hands on and i would do community service too. Thanks!

  1. Look for a local women & children's shelter.  They can always use things on site.  Many times women have to leave abusive situations, and are at the shelters with their kids.  Since most of the funding has to go to food, medical, etc., there is very little left over for "fun stuff" for the kids.  Those kids really need things to feel comfortable, especially if they are coming out of abusive home lives.  You might even be able to help out with mentoring or tutoring, especially if the mom's are busy trying to get legalities, employment, finding a safe place to live, etc. worked out.  

    Local foster care centers or orphanages would be ideal, too.  

    Good luck!!
