Our company is moving in the spring and as a result each dept is doing an extensive clean up. I have noticed we have accumulated alot of binders which as a parent I know cost quite a bit when back to school comes around. I inquired as to what we planned on doing with them and was told they would be thrown in the garbage. This is a total waste to me,so I asked if I could find a group to donate these to for needy kids, could I arrange it? I was given the okay, so I tried googling but not much luck. SO..can anyone recommend an organization I can contact? In Brampton/Miss/Toronto area.
thanks for your help~!

I'm pretty sure if you get in contact with your local public elementary/middle school even high school they would go to use.

Maybe someone at the local school board could put you in touch with such a group.
Another option might be contacting an immigrant aid society as they may need them for their classes or for the children of their clients. Same with a women's shelter. Sometimes municpalities have social service offices which have lists of groups who offer supplies/services to various groups. If you call your local city hall they may be able to help.

Look at the donations page. It gives you details of which charity accepts what type of donations and whether they pick up, etc.
