There are many local areas to donate to I am with 2 groups one goes to the womens rescue for abused women and children another goes to police for when they have to move a child they get a quilt and a stuffed animal to hang onto also highway patrol so if they go to a wreck where kids are involved or just plain needing a warm covering also social services our 2 groups simply cannot handle all the needs and I agree so many local why spend postage on mailing
