“Place to donate unused pregnancy tests?”

“I have a close friend who expected to be working on getting pregnant for awhile, and as such, she stocked up on dozens of pregnancy and ovulation tests while they were on sale a few months ago. We are all super excited that she and her husband had no problems and are already past the first trimester of a healthy pregnancy. This will also likely be their only child, at least for the next few years. Now she has a stockpile of tests, still shrink wrapped in the original packaging and with expiration dates in the 2017-2018 range. She reached out to me because I’ve volunteered with a number of local women’s organizations, but we are striking out finding a place that will take them. Two places told me to sell them on Craigslist at a discount, lol, but my friend really wants to donate in order to hopefully provide a service to someone who may financially need it… especially given the political developments of the last week. Does anyone have knowledge of places that do accept new-in-packaging, over-the-counter pregnancy tests, or do you have any recommendations for places to contact? Thanks!!!”
