    I worked with a refugee group for a while, and they had this problem too.

    When I travelled a bit, I'd keep the bar of hotel soap I used during my stay and always grab one more (I was usually there 3 days) and give the group the extra soap and maybe the hotel shampoo too, as I frequently took my own. I didn't take all the hotel HBA products, but the things that I would normally have used, and it helped the refugees quite a bit. Also, like others, although I have no small children, when I find a bargain on diapers, I buy and donate them.

    When my parents passed away, we had several bags of adult diapers. I returned a couple to the store for a refund, but donated the opened ones and the older ones to a friend that has her mom at home. She was shocked and very thankful for them.

    I regularly get products at WG and CVS for free or near free just for this purpose! My neighbor helps out at a local food pantry and she is always so thankful when I drop off hba type items!
