My name is Robin and I am with the Cancer Caring Center in Pittsburgh, PA. We provide free emotional support services to cancer patients in Western, PA.

From time to time we get calls from folks who want to donate tube feeding supplies. I was happy to find this board and will post when we are offered donations. Hopefully someone in the Pittsburgh area can use them!

Thanks for your generous offer but we often do not have any takers when we post freebies. I doubt you will have much success if posting supplies.

Try the Oley Foundation. They have a patient exchange programs for tube feeding supplies. They match those in need with people who have extras.

Thank you.
