[misc.wanted] Another Group

  Another fine organization looking for donation of mac equipment is the
Glabal Walk for a Livable World.  They particularly need a laserwriter,
but they are in need of most things (they have more than one office).
The walk is focused on global warming and environmental pollution.
The walk starts in January 1990, first from the west coast to the east
then Europe through European Russia through the east to end in Japan.

I am perfectly happy to be associated with either or both organizations :-)

Since the topic of donating computers for tax write-offs to not-for-profit
organizations, I had a thought about this.  I am affiliated with a non-profit
organization, not large but growing, with a mission mainly in Los Angeles'
inner-city.  We are always in need of supplies, though we are QUITE self-
sufficient.

My question to the net is this:  is there something like a classified for
non-profit organizations that they can either solicit corporate and individual
help and said corporations and individual can solicit for a quick tax
write-off?  If there isn't, well, it certainly wouldn't be the WORST idea
in publications!

Any help would be appreciated.

I believe that the United Way administers a "Goods in Kind" program
that places corporate donations with non-profit organizations.  I
can't remember the name of the program, but I'm sure your local branch
could tell you about it.  I also remember seeing it in a reference
book about non-profit organizations in our library.

Hope this helps.
