Yes. Do you need an address? 2|1|can you give us the address?|2597grandma|hbs4470@optonline.net|08:39:38|11/23/2016|
can you give us the address? 3|1|Address to donate cancelled stamps for charity|bhill_lady|bhill.people@yahoo.com|17:06:54|11/23/2016|
Here is the address to send cancelled postage stamps as a donation to charity. They sort them and sell them to the stamp companies. Then stamp collectors from all over the USA and the world buy them from the company. So this is a good thing. Sometimes they do send a thank you note; sometimes they are too busy to do that. But I do know that this address is good, and that they do use them.

Save your canceled stamps
By saving canceled stamps from your incoming mail, you can contribute to the Sisters of the Holy Cross Ministry With the Poor. Our sisters remove the stamps from the envelope paper, sort them and sell them to brokers and collectors. The proceeds benefit our ministries, helping those in need around the world. Invite your friends, family and co-workers to save stamps, too!
What to do
Save stamps that have their perforations intact, are not too heavily canceled, and are not torn, cut or stained. Leave at least 1/4 inch on each side of the stamp when cutting it from the envelope.
Most valuable
Stamps in mint (uncanceled) or fine/very fine condition
Foreign stamps
U.S. Commemoratives
Stamps with postage values of $1 or more, such as Washington and Jackson, Redwood Forest Priority Mail, Bixby Creek Bridge Express Mail, etc.
