Hello from "USED POSTAGE STAMPS FOR CHARITY"
Some friends and I run this page, if you have used postage stamps from home or work, please consider donating them to one of these causes.
You can check when addresses were last confimed on our main site
http://usedstampsforcharity.weebly.com
(we are more than happy to list your charity too, and start an overseas page for foreign charities outside the UK)
Used Postage Stamps For CharityMillions of people, young and old, are stamp collectors (philatelists), and philately is an educational and fun hobby.
Couple this with helping charities as well, keeping stamps out of landfill, and instead recycling stamps to collectors!!!!!
This is a webpage listing charities in the UK which collect used postage stamps to raise money for charity. Charities find used stamps, which they then sort, and sell on to collectors and philatelists, an excellent source of extra income, and you are helping save the environment and reduce waste by not binning them! What could be better?
Whether your stamps are recent or old, common or rare, wherever they come from across the world, every stamp can be saved!
The charities/ volunteers listed below collect used postage stamps for charities. Please send your used stamps to any of them,
all donations of stamps will be most gratefully received! Contact us to add your charity to the directory list (make sure that you contact us from time to time to update the "address last confirmed" date. )

Hi Syed, this video has inspired me since I saw it a long time ago. I found you on Facebook to learn more. Recently I have began feeling a strong call to start a helping project, and I wanted to reach out to you for advice/assistance but I saw that we are no longer Facebook friends. Please email me and let's talk about changing the world. -

Well done to you for giving so much. An inspiration. -
sha
love!
Birthdays to me are days for giving back. I used to think of it in terms of giving back to my loved ones because without them I wouldn't have made it to each birthday but now I'm more aware to give back to the community as well. It takes a village after all... -
Shamim
Every thing !

Don't Ever change my friend. Please don't ever change.
No doubt every person who received good from you that day, felt obliged to do a little something for others. You can bring about change. -

Mark Carlson
The creativity and imagination of Syed really impressed me. Obviously most of these Acts of Kindness were not spur-of-the-moment, but were carefully thought out. Wow!M -
Sophie Paulin
Syed, I meant to write, did you do it for YOU? :)
I found that when someone is happy doing things , it benefits everybody around:))
Plus it becomes inspiring for others:))) -
Sophie Paulin
I am wondering if you were not tired to give after a while:)
Personnally it doesn't inspire me. I makes me feel I am not doing enough.
What kind of unconscious message do you have here.
I hope you were truthfull when you went on your giving spree:) -
jcobe
what a beautiful day for you. -

"Spending Thousands for party's, ends the same Night! Spending time for memories, remains forever" Truly inspiring ;) -

Today I took my 5 and 9 yr old kids to a local hospital to distribute 6 balloons. What a difference 6 balloons made! My son didn't want to do it... he was intimidated by going into the hospital. But afterwards told me "mom, that made me feel good". Great experience for us. Thanks to this video!!! -
Nima

Elizabeth Fischer
On the 10th anniversary of my mother's death, I did 10 random acts of kindness; it felt wonderful. I am sure that the happiness Syed received by being a giver all day topped any material presents he could have received. It is, indeed, more blessed to give - particularly when it is a random act of kindness towards strangers, or an anonymous kindness for someone we care for. Thank you, Syed, for being an inspiration for so many. -
Mary
I am inspired by how thoughtful Syed is, and what a great imagination he has for
remembering so many people in the serving occupations. You are an inspiration to me! -
Paula
Wonderful!
I will start a birthday tradition with my kids!!

We have bcome confused about 'gifting'...it's not about the 'getting' but the 'giving'. This young, 22 year-old man has a visibly contagious kind heart....I can only imagine the ripple effect of his many acts of kindness created. Thank you - and bless you! XO! -
Jane
I loved this film and think that on my next birthday I will do 62 acts of kindness instead of having a party. Thanks for the inspiration. -
Mimi
As a teacher I get too caught up in "teaching" and don't look at my students as "children" enough - I am going to make a point of saying twice as many "kind" comments as "correcting" ones....had a rough week and this reminded me of why I choose becoming a teacher at age 45 -
Cindy
Syed, you took Robyn's idea and made it your own in the most beautiful and creative ways imaginable. You are a gem! THANK YOU for sharing your acts of kindness as it truly changed the day for me. -

andre
way cool. if everyone thought of others like this, there would be no wars and all would have happy proeperous lives. Too bad no else ever thought to do this. Oh ya, Jesus taught that as did Ghandi. -

What inspired you about this video? Amazing ideas my friend! 22 and wise beyond your years. Many young men at your age are thinking of themselves on their birthdays and you are thinking of others. You are to kind and may all of your kindness come back full circle to you in this upcoming year because you deserve it. Happy Birthday my friend:) -
Kinjal
There are no big or small acts of kindness, any act of kindness is an act of love that comes from the heart. After watching this video, I know that all I have to do is look around and offer a hand with a smile and love.
Thanks for sharing this video and inspiring us. -
Miguel
You are the man! Great idea that could easily be incorporated by everyone on their birthday. Now I have to think of 67 acts of kindness! -

- Syed Muzamil Hasan Zaidi was inspired by Robyn Bomar, who spent her 38th birthday performing 38 random acts of kindness.
- Scientific research show that kindness makes you happy... and, that happiness makes you kind - a wonderful positive feedback loop!
- Perform a small act of kindness today. Need ideas?
