Would they be suitable for donations. They might not be sturdy enough.
I would think the best place for something like this would be an auction. There, they are usually sold as a bundle of several at a time. I know that Oregon has numerous auctions of most anything. Around here, there is a consignment auction just a few miles from my home. Things like this would be on the auction bill, so those who might like that would come. I hope you find a good home for your UFO's.
