In the discussion during the social facility proposal, we thought about shops:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/social_facility <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/social_facility>but left it that shop=charity was more appropriate. However, we do have social_facility=food_bank which is a step towards a charity-oriented shop, one that specifically gives away food. Thinking about it from an end-user perspective, I could see 2 types of people with respect to charitable merchandise: 1. Those that are looking for a place to donate goods, whether they are food, clothing, household items, book, even a car 2. Those that are looking for a place to buy second-hand/cheap goods from a store that has social welfare as a higher priority than profits In either case, the shop key handles the description of the actual merchandise (shop=clothes, shop=books, etc). I think a new type of social facility would help describe the business model as Laurence mentioned: social_facility=shop So for both types of users, they would add the social_facility=shop tag to their search. We may want to have an explicit "donation={yes,no}" tag, I'm not sure if that is necessary.
