Do you have any old items collecting dust you pass over everyday just sitting there awaiting a home where it can be used? It's not a dust collector, don't waste its potential is the message from http://www.freecycle.org/ .
The Freecycle Network helps people within the area's all around the world and even in my neck of the woods. A work colleague informed about the site and what it is doing for many people.
It's been very beneficial to many people around me searching for things they have needed and offering up old items of their own. Personally I feel this is a very creative idea for a non profit organization. Just think how many people lives are affected on a daily basis due to this program.
Give your unwanted items to a good home instead of sending them to landfill.
Freecycle is a nonprofit movement that aims to reduce waste, save precious resources and ease the burden on our landfills, while enabling its members to benefit from the strength of a large community.

To show you the type of attention the site has, I have gathered some information on http://www.freecycle.org/ from http://compete.com/ an analytics website.
The unique visitor count during the month of April of 2007 was 300,000 and has been on a steady incline. April of 2008 the numbers have doubled over that 1 year period the unique visitor count has risen to 705,210. I would say that is awesome growth over a 1 year period.
