Where to donate Easter baskets

After any holiday I buy the 50%-70% items for the next year. Some for my kids but mostly for donating. Today Brant had his Easter party at pre-school and there is a TON of candy in our house...in addition to the candy I have left over from stuffing plastic eggs for Brant's party.
So I dug out my Easter baskets that I got on sale and made up two baskets. I made an infant basket (Aveeno lotion and wash, socks, formula, Earth's Best baby food, stuffed animal, sucker) and a toddler boy basket (fruits snacks, suckers, three match box cars, activity kit (color book, crayons, stickers), plastic eggs filled with candy, chocolate Easter Bunny).
I called my friend Kristina and asked if she needed them for her work. Kristina is a case manager for the Villages of Indiana, an organization dedicated to preventing child abuse, protecting kids in foster care among other things. They have an amazing website and below is an example of what you might find on it. http://www.villageskids.org/
I'm sure every state has a program like this and its a great place to offer donations.
