I gave away several thousand paperbacks and hardbacks in the UK earlier this year. I tried various charities and no-one was very interested. In the end I gave them to my family, my friends and friends of family and friends. As word got around, I got more takers. There are also jumble sales and various commercial places that raise money for charity as a side issue. I gave some to a small country station with no commercial bookstall where the stationmaster sold books for charity to travellers at 50p a pop. I also went into a Co-op supermarket recently where there was a 50p bookstall for charity. If you can't find anything like that, you could approach a venue and suggest doing it for your favourite charity.
