Got a Parka to Spare

Thinking of sponsoring a 40 ft. container of donated goods from Port of Oakland, California next week. This was collected during an Oregon State Football game with the slogan ‘Parkas for Pakistan’ by the St. Vincent de Paul Society of Lane County in Eugene, Oregon and East Bay Depot in Oakland. Both are non-profit social service organizations which have managed to collect a large number of good quality winter coats, jackets, parkas, and blankets. The cost is $2000 which you donations are covering. I am meeting with them to take some pictures so that we can see the quality of this stuff.

However, for all LOCAL BAY AREA people, if you have NEW/USED but CLEAN, RAINPROOF PARKAS, Jackets, gloves, caps for Adults and Children, please let me know and I can figure out a way to pick them up and send them with the shipment.
