Default I need your help to help others

I have seriously brought way too much stuff. House is completely full and I still have 80 boxes or more in the garage. I am putting a few things up for sale, but mostly I have been throwing out perfectly good usable things because I have NO where to put them. I would prefer to donate these things to a good cause that can use them. If you are affliated with any charity that needs donations and can PICK UP the stuff, it is yours. Might need to come a few times....

Hey, Ladydoc... have a garage sale... I'd like to see some of this stuff, maybe its something I can use. Post the sale on here and in the Daily Sun, you may make some $$ for your extra items.

freecycle.org for The Villages and Lady Lake is also a good way to give things away. You post what you have to give and those that need it contact you to pick it up.
