Find a home for outgrown clothes

The bot finds local charities or foster-care groups that take donations, writes to them in the local language, and watches for replies until a handoff is set.

Starting prompt (adapted)

Find local charities, shelters, or foster-care groups near me that accept [items] in good condition. Email the best few in the local language, describing what I have and asking whether they want it and how to hand it over. Watch for replies, ask me before agreeing to a time or place, and don't share my home address until I confirm.
