Wow! I've never heard of someone wanting to donate trophies. Like STrapani said, "Your tropihies are symbols of your accomplishments in life.
If you really, really want to donate them, why not go to a local awards company (Blue Ribbon in Somerset comes to mind on Worlds Fair Drive) and have them pull the plates from each of the trophies and set them in wood for you first? Then you can take the trophies to your community center and let them use them.

Thanks guys for the idea. These trophies have been sitting in a box in my garage and are 15-20 years old now. I feel that memories are enough for me to remember my accomplishments so I was looking to get rid of them. I figured I'd put them to good use instead of into a landfill. I will tray and contact the special olympics, 4H, and the such to see if they have use for them.
I was just hoping someone knew of a place like this in NJ Donate Trophies to Grove City Creative Images (http://www.gccreativeimages.com/donate%20trophie.html - broken link)
You earned those trophies, now kids get trophies just for attending.
Or worse....just for being totally uesless at something. Really what is the point in giving every kid a trophy....what are we teaching them....just show up and be inept and it's worth a trophy. No need to try to be the best. I'm so sick of all the PC BS.
My granddaughter's Girl Scout troop was collecting trophies and then bought them to a local cerebral palsy center.
It was a win-win-win deal for everyone involved.
