How can I find people to receive sheitals? Word of mouth?
I send emails out on the community chat and email list

Also be clear about whether you intend the sheitels as tzedaka (in which case only needy people should request one) or anyone who could use one (in which case it's not limited by income; let people self-select as to whether they want a sheitel from a gemach).

I would think its understood it goes to people that need it... ? no?
why would someone want a second hand sheital from a gemach?

Maybe they don't want to spend for a new one? They get pricey.

There are plenty of gemachs that exist to let people give their hand-me-downs to someone who can put them to good use, whatever their income is exactly on paper. In my city, there are furniture gemachs that operate like that, uniform gemachs, book/toys gemachs. So for example, if someone is looking to give away a couch, they don't really care about the financial situation of the family who accepts the couch (but wealthy people end up not using the gemach because they'd rather buy new).
