Can this be donated and if so, to whom?

[ Edited ]

I have 3 boxes that hold in each, 4 packages with 10 extra-large super absorbent pads in each package; the kind you place under someone who has issues with urine leakage or leakage of any type when bed ridden. Not opened; I ordered them for my son but we went with something else for him.

 

I paid out of pocket via the pharmacy and hate to have to toss them. Any ideas? TIA!!

 

 

Mods, if you feel this would be better under Wellness, please move.

Good Will will take them.  I see boxes of adult diapers there all the time for sale.

You should be able to donate them if they are still unopened. You could always call your usual donation choice and ask.

You could also put them up on freecycle or craigslist as free for the taking.

@SahmIam

 

Are they old?   Can't you return them where you bought them?
