Seems like a simple question, right?

Not so.

I am looking for some kinda non-profit that is looking for good, used masks, fins, snorkels and other misc dive gear I have accumulated. The links I find are either no longer working or no longer accepting goods.

Anyone have any ideas/know of any orgs I can help??

Thanks!

What about that group that teaches injured soldiers how to scuba dive? I have heard people talk about them several times on the board. If no else gives a link I can try to find it if you are interested.
 
Dive Pirate's Foundation is a good organization. They work with adpative/disabled divers. I have been told that they take donated equipment.
 
The Diveheart foundation takes gear donations as well. We work with the disabled to teach them to dive as well as work to spread awareness of special needs divers to bring even more acceptance of their activities to the overall dive community.

goto http://www.diveheart.org for more info
 
Have contacted Dive Pirates and Dive Heart - will let you know what I hear back from them. Thanks for the suggestions, folks! And if anyone else has ideas, let me know!!
