        Oh, good, I’m glad I’m not the only one who had that concern. But it’s so difficult to be so spread out and offer aid that isn’t just cash.

          I have some stuff that I would happily mail to someone who needed it, some older but still usable phones/computer, a ton on perfectly fine laptop parts that I don’t need, baby toys/clothes, I got more formula than I’d ever need when my youngest son was born and my wife is breastfeeding so I’m trying to get rid of it.

          I don’t really like the chain thrift stores and all the small local ones around me shut down after a chain moved to town. I donate to the schools a lot but they’re suprisingly picky about what they’ll take.

          I could see it working.

          I don’t think I would be comfortable sending money nor am I necessarily in a position to do so. But I can afford a few bucks in postage and a clear shelf in the garage.
