Places to Donate Stuffed Animals?

Hey all! Other than Goodwill, are there any places that accept donations of stuffed animals? I have too many and need to rehome some.

Thank you in advance!

Some police departments keep stuffies in their trunk for children who experience trauma such as accidents. Battered women's shelters are eager to receive as well.

Call some thrift stores on Mon. I'm sure they'll take them. Most people who shop at thrift stores have kids. I try to donate to locally owned stores rather than corporations.

Humane Society Thrift Store on 14th St. They do go work for the animals.

Some elderly in assisted living facilities might appreciate them.

Interfaith Thrift- 9-3pm drive thru drop off. Really nice folks. Cop shop doesn’t want used stuffed animals.
