Where can I donate toys??

My living room looks like a daycare center with all the toys Hayley has. I would love to donate them but don't know where. I don't want to give them to good will because I want someone to have them...not to have to pay for them. They are in really good condition.

I was thinking of a Womens Shelter that had kids or Churches? Any suggestions where?

I donated some things to our church along with baby food and formula.

I donated a lot of DS's stuffed animals to St. Barnabas Hospital Child Advocacy Center

Also I'm sure most parochial schools would accept them. I teach in one & we have parents come often w/ good used toys...the kids love the "new" stuff. I teach Pre-K.

There was a posting on Craigslist where a shelter was looking for donations.

Hospitals don't typically accept donations of used toys. I had some to donate in the past and they said they had to be new.

How about the Centereach library?

check for your local mothers' center - they may be in connection with local shelters and can take them to donate to whomever needs.

here's the site with centers:
