rechasing stripped bottom bracket

just started volunteering at a bike exchange near me at the Boys/Girls club

someone donated a 1996 Cannondale SR500 (the purple one with a headshok) but it has stripped threads on the non-drive side of the bottom bracket

Should I attempt to rechase the threads using steel cups? We don't have chasing tools so that may be my only option.

Fine with just dumping the frame, but if I can get it back to a safe riding condition, the bike may bring $200-300 to the club
