Crazy!!! I'm kinda surprised there isn't a law forcing them to donate

  To me I just can’t conceive the thought of people throwing out lego! It’s just
wrong! It’s bad for the environment, the others that could have had it, and for
the bricks!

The world we live in is just so sad.

indeed although its important to note exceptions as damaged (I'm not talking
minor damage I'm talking cracked bricks, bricks that are chewed up, etc)
Lego should not be donated. Ive throw out hundreds of pounds of badly damaged
lego over the years and would feel bad if people sent that type of lego to the
charity

Yes it’s not right to give the poor our garbage, if we can’t use it because it’s so badly damaged, than they probably can’t.
