Donation isn't a new idea. People and organizations have always passed along goods they no longer need. What is new is the increasing awareness that "waste" can be a resource. This guide focuses on donation opportunities in New England. In this way New England benefits twice: once by preventing useful materials from becoming waste, and again, by directing these materials locally. The following categories have been selected to ease the use of this directory, while it is recognized that many other opportunities exist.
