I recently tackled this same problem when faced with 15 years of accumulated fabric when I purchased my workroom. SO. MUCH. FABRIC. I reached out to SCAD, our local university for creative careers and turns out both the fibers and fashion departments were interested. They sent a panel truck for pickup and we just about filled it top to bottom!
Our local senior center also expressed interest on our next purge as they use fabrics in craft / sewing projects, as did our local arts academy high school for their annual “found fashion” show.
