What Do You Do with Extra Formula?

Hi Moms - As we know formula is VERY expensive! My daughter is almost done with hers, and I have some leftover Enfamil 4 oz travel packs as well as a handful of bottles of formula from the hospital with the screw-on nipples. It's not a ton of formula, but I hate to throw it out. Does anyone take donations? churches, groups, etc?

What can I do next?

I brought mine to the women's shelter in leominster. I had to call and set up a time to drop it off as the place is pretty secure for the safety of the women and kids who are there.

You could reach out to mom's who might use it on this site or post it on Craig's List. I did this with a can of soy formula that I could not use and it went to a family who was very appreciative of it.

Hi D. - I'm not sure where you live, but the Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter will be more than happy to take it! On our last visit, they said that if you have 1/2 a pan of lasagna left, bring it in...

Thank you for your efforts to help support those less fortunate. It's tough times for all.

D., check with your local food bank or church, I believe that as long as the bottles/containters are sealed they will take them.
