Hi there, I am wondering if you know any of the places you listed in Penang that requires donation of clothings, furniture and toys? I have a lot to give away as my mum is a hoarder. Most of the things are brand new and just need dusting and wiping. I can't say the same for the furnitures. They are pretty old. But we are running out of space and I am intending to recycle and reuse to help others as well as the environment smile.gif It might be a good stock for a fund-raising perhaps?

There a HEAPS of clothes - adult (men & women) as well as for teenagers (girl & boy).
Toys for all ages, girls and boys - Lego, jigsaw puzzles, barbies, toy cars.
Books - University books for Business & Management, books for <5 year olds (Sesame Street & Peter and Jane collection), magazines, health books, fiction.
Decor - Vases, frames, hang-ups, all sorts.
Stationery - Colour pencils, pencils, pens, tape, staples.
Bags - Handbags, travel bags.
Furniture - One sturdy black desk, two wooden bed frames, mirrors, coffee tables, a lounge set, three-level cabinets with doors, etc.
Misc - Tupperware containers, cups, etc.

I am still going though the stuff at the house, so who knows what else. I am thinking that not all the stuff are 100% brand new (or in fashion either) but they are still usable and would benefit the poor families that can't afford the luxury of simple household items or aesthetics.

Hm...approx. 107.5cm in depth, 75cm in height and 167.5cm in width. The stands/legs and drawers are made of varnished wood (syelek). The top is made of laminated wood in black with a glass inset (about 0.5 cm deep for calenders, display etc).

To the bottom left of the desk is a set of three equal drawers (good for storing stationery and books). The right drawer is actually a whole spacious cabinet (good for stacking files).

Am I doing okay with the descriptions?

Frankly if you wanna see it for yourself, just pop by. There's always someone home all the time (aka me). I don't think a picture will do it justice because its in a corner, stacked with junk (an idea of how sturdy it is perhaps?). And if you do drop by, you can have a look around and see what else you want...though I don't think you'll be getting your trip's worth if you come too soon (I have SO much more to dig out!) rclxub.gif
