Today my department at work (Genentech) is going through an annual records retention and purge exercise -- getting rid of documents that are no longer useful, sending things to off-site storage, etc.  A lot of paper is recycled as part of this process, and they also end up with a lot of binders that are no longer being used.  They would like to donate excess binders to a nonprofit organization instead of throwing them away, and they have asked for suggestions.

If anyone on this list knows of specific organizations that could use binders (a variety of sizes and colors), please let me know.  The main restriction is that it has to be a not for profit organization (charity, school, adult classes, etc.).  Although my group is up in South San Francisco, it would be OK if the organization is in the South Bay, or the Bay Area in general.  It's impossible to estimate how many binders there will be -- some groups operate with very little paper while others generate a lot.

Thanks,
