I got these websites from an article in the current Family Circle magazine (Clutter for a Cause, by Jennifer R Beck, p.124)
Books: http://www.readertoreader.org Donates books to schools in need
Glasses: http://www.givethegiftofsight.com Gives a list of places you can drop off old glasses, no matter how old. They are sent to poor and developing countries. Sears and Target Optical are two of the places listed.
cell phones: http://www.call2recycle.org
coats: http://www.onewarmcoat.org Find a coat drive near you- they go back to those in need in your community
musical instruments: http://www.hungryformusic.org Instruments go to needy students
computers/computer stuff: http://www.critsina.org Computers go to special education classes and students
I've just summarized briefly the gist of the article. I thought it was worthwhile to pass on
