Waste Not Center: One Man Gathers What Another Man Spills
You can magically transform unused or unwanted materials and supplies into arts and crafts!Did you know that Keep Franklin County Beautiful runs a program called the Waste Not Center? The center accepts donations from businesses of out-dated, unusable, or otherwise unwanted materials and supplies that have potential for use in arts and crafts projects.
Your old stuff goes to member artists, teachers, and students. They take your unwanted materials and make magic. You throw less away and make artists, art teachers, and kids happy. The center picks things up, and your donation is tax deductible, too!
If you want to participate, check out the Waste Not Center.
Executive Director Neil Drobny tells us that out-of-season display materials or outdated promotional items are typically in strong demand. The Center doesn't accept furniture or electronic equipment.

Don't know if anyone would find this useful, but I recently moved and had the opportunity to give away a ton of stuff and did it via FreeCycleColumbus. It's a very cool system of giving away unwanted anything.
Dave, I had heard of FreeCycle before, but I didn't know we had one in Columbus. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing this resource!
