Seeds to Give (long)

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I went through all my seeds last night, inventorying what I have from
last year, and starting to really think about what I'd like to try
this next year.
I would like to give away most of them.
Why? 
A lot of them are from 1996, some are from 1995, some from 1997 and
1998. Some are varieties I'm not going to grow, or that I have grown
and not cared for. Many are unopened packets that I got on sale when a
friend's hardware store went under and I don't need 4 packets of
Cabbage Early Copenhagen. Plus, I can afford to buy a few packets of
seed this year, which I couldn't really do last year, and in this past
year, people have been so generous towards me and I'd like to give
what I can back.

I was wondering if anyone here knew of any gardening project that
needed donated seeds, whether it be an educational or "feed the
hungry" sort of thing, or a community gardening program, or an
individual or family that needs or would like some extra seeds. If you
do, please let me know, or if you want some of the varieties yourself.

All I need in return is help with postage if I end up sending seeds to
many different people.

All the seeds have been kept in the deep-freeze for the past year, and
for most vegetables, I know seed keeps for several years.
The varieties I have are listed below. I have multiple packets of many
of them.
