Give and Receive Items at Sight Exchange
Are you familiar with the Sight Exchange group? It's a Yahoo group
that helps people easily give and receive low vision-related items,
all for free. From the site:

"The Sight Exchange group is open to all who want to give and receive
items that serve the needs of the blind, low vision or visually
impaired population. Whether it's a mobility device, cane, talking
clock, book or computer, feel free to post it. Or maybe you're looking
to acquire something yourself! Individuals and Nonprofit groups are
all welcome to participate!"

"Things to remember: Everything posted must be free, legal, and
appropriate. Everyone must begin by offering an item before requesting
an item. Mail items via "Free Matter for the Blind or Visually
Impaired" whenever possible."

When you join, you will receive two email messages explaining the
basic's of the group and how to get started. Please be sure to read
each carefully. There are lots of cool things offered for those with
low vision or visual impairment!
