Hi,
Lots and lots of travel and have amassed a huge lot of hotel/airline toiletries such as toothbrush sets, shampoos, soaps etc etc...
Normally back in the states i would donate these to homeless shelters who would gratefully accept them.
I tried calling the Social Welfare Department here, but they had no clue.
Anyone have any idea where these could be donated?
Thanks.

The Orthodox Church which is on the 7th floor of a building near the corner of Caine and Arbuthnot road. They distribute to the needy here in HK and in other 3rd world countries. Sorry can't give you contact details, have always given my travel toiletries to a friend who attends their Sunday mass each week.
Will try and find out more for you.

How nice and presumptious (and morally upright) of you greenvalleys....
When you fly first or business class, you are GIVEN a toiletries kit...
When your baggage goes missing from a flight, you are GIVEN an overnight kit...
When you stay in suites, you are GIVEN premium amenities (think full size stuff from Hermes, Crabtree etc..) as welcome gifts...
Dasia, thanks for the lead, will follow up tomorrow.

Social Welfare does not know because they " turn it over" to ISS's program under Assistance in Kind for asylum seeker, torture victims and refugees . You may contact one of the programme directors at a.panares@isshk.org
