How to Donate Trial-sized Toothpaste

If you have found yourself with an over abundance of trial-sized toothpastes, you should consider giving them as a donation. There are many charities that distribute toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss to needy children and families across the country. The Ronald McDonald House Charities donate these essential items to families of patients and the patients themselves undergoing medical treatment. The trial-size toothpastes can also be intergrated into care packages for US troops that are serving overseas. This will give them a little reminder that someone back home is thinking of them.
