I recently retired from my regular career and have always had a side business selling stamps and postal history. I am currently building a retirement home and will be moving in about a year.

I have more stamps than I can ever sell - even at my current pace. I plan to continue selling stamps in my retirement but a much more modest pace. I would however like to rid myself of the vast majority of extra and duplicate material I have accumulated over the years.

To this end I am looking for recommendations on Charities or organzizations that accept large amounts of stamps. Like veterans organizations, Childrens homes, etc. If any member has had a good experience doing this or knows of a worthy place or places please advise.

Thanks
Richard
