Free Household Items

Friends,

Please see a message I received from the West End Crawlers:

Hello everyone!
A couple who live on Peter St. manage student houses/apts., and when the students leave, they get what's left in them. 
They wanted to open a thrift store, however they both face serious medical issues, so the store will not be able to open.  He hasTONS of, you-name-it, household/kitchen items, clothing, shoes, coats, comforters, bedding, furniture etc..
I told them I would send out this email to everyone I know who might be able to help find homes for it all.  If you, or someone you know, can use any of these item, please contact me!  I'd like to know by Friday Dec. 13th, then we'll arrange to pick it all up by Friday Dec. 20 and distribute.  If anyone can recruit "helpers" to pick it up, that'd be appreciated! 
FABIO, if you could post our dilemma and contact info. in your blog, it'd be greatly appreciated!
I'd like to have (at least most of it) out of their house before Christmas!

The West End Crawlers asked to amend the above and add this: 

 "About the donation items: I should have included that we will be working with established organizations, to help the masses, so if you, as an individual, request anything, there's a possibility we may not be able to get you what you'd like, from this particular supply. We hope you understand! If you contact us, please be specific in what you need, and we'll see what we can do!"

    Could any unclaimed winter wear be donated to Coats for Kids? Could any unclaimed items be raffled off, funds for tickets be used for a project in the future?
