I tried to donate this to the crafters from the Luthern Church for their Care Bears, but never heard back from them.
It will need to be picked up from my home.

It is nice what you are trying to do rather than trashing stuff that may be useful to others. I'm not at all religious yet, I'm sure I have a guardian angel. Things just seem to end right.
The Lutheran Church and Care Bears. Do not think bad of them. It is an amateur group. Perhaps, better at sewing than administration. Choice, call again? Fate?
Perhaps, they have too many sewing machines and someone who needs it more will end up with it. I know nothing about sewing machines. My grandmother had and used a treadle operated singer. It was kept like new. It was gorgeous and she did gorgeous work with it. My mother bought a singer electric machine in the 60's. My grandmother did a better job with her 1900s machine. I think my sister has my mother's machine.
I seem to recall, like yours, it was self threading and like yours it did not work. LONG TIME AGO but I seem to recall you need to buy the proper needles for the self threading to work. If, I am right it is proof not all the stuff in my head is useless.
