Northern VA Community?

I rescued this Hohner press and a large cabinet of type/tools and have no idea what to do with it all but the rednecks I got it from were going to throw it in a lake.
I’d love to see it go to someone who has the resources to restore the machine but I’m not sure if that’s even possible. It’s a beast, small but mighty (aka extremely heavy).
Is there a market for metal type too?
I’m a Graphic Designer but I’ve got no letterpress experience other than taking a few workshops.

Any resources or advice is welcome. I’m looking at a potential move next year and would like this to go to someone who can use it. I’m located in Loudoun County Virginia.
