The Devon-based Donkey Sanctuary would be very happy to receive used postage stamps, both international and UK. The Sanctuary works worldwide to help care for and treat donkeys and educate the public (most specifically owners and children) in all aspects of donkey care.
The charity has free educational programmes and mobile clinics running in Egypt, Ethiopia, Mexico, India and Kenya, and also it has set up sanctuaries in Spain and Italy.
The Donkey Sanctuary has cared for over 12,000 donkeys in its lifetime. And a good number of the donkeys who come into rescue often find themselves with second careers, visiting elderly people in residential homes or working with children with special needs.
You can find out more about the Donkey Sanctuary here - and if you are able to, the Sanctuary is always looking for people to foster donkeys.
And please send your stamps to The Donkey Sanctuary (Used Stamps), Sidmouth, Devon EX10 0NU. Thank you! The charity asks that you send large bundles of stamps to save on postage and packing.
And an update in January 2015: Yes, the Donkey Sanctuary is still collecting used postage stamps, so please send your stamps to the address in the paragraph above, marking the envelope Used Stamps. Please also remember to put enough postage on when you send them, thanks :-)
Please confirm that this is still the correct postal address to which we should send old postage stamps.
