Where can I donate toys?

My neighbor - so kind gave us all of his kid's old toys. While I appreciate it - we just don't have room for them. A lot of stuff is pretty old - but I'm sure a good rinse would make them like new. Is there a thrift store...or anywhere I can donate them? I am not looking to make any money - but it would be a shame to throw them away when someone else can get good use of them.

ETA: I'm in Nassau County.

Put them on Freecycle or Craig's list, someone will snatch them up.
