Good home needed for large cache of fine woods

My late father's hobby was refinishing antique furniture. Over the years he accumulated a large cache of wood consisting of Walnut, Mahogany, Oak, etc. in the form of furniture parts including spindles, legs, columns, beams, drawer fronts, table tops, headboards, etc.; some pieces include intricate carvings and burrell inlays. These items could be repurposed for woodworking or building furniture. I would rather see this wood put to good use by a non-profit organization rather than sending it to the dump or using it for firewood.

The volume of wood is estimated to be about 1,602 cubic feet. In firewood metrics, this equals 7.8 cords. To transport, it will require a 26' U-Haul truck (1,611 cubic feet). I am looking for a party willing to come and pick up ALL the wood. The wood is located in Roanoke, VA and help can be available to load.

My intent is to place the wood with some type of vocational training or trade school where the organization could use the wood to teach and build furniture or produce items as a fund raiser. I've done a cursory internet search for an appropriate organization, but nothing stands out so far.

Any leads or suggestions to donate this wood to a worthy organization would be appreciated.

 

Just to let everyone know that the giant wood cache finally found a good home, literally.

This morning, Habitat for Humanity hauled it off in a big truck. The supervisor felt some of the wood could be re-purposed for mantles and gingerbread trim. The rest will probably go to their ReStore where they sell excess donated building materials to the public. I am glad that the wood ended up going to a good cause.

Thanks to everyone here for their placement suggestions and PMs.
