Sassy, I've been doing this for a little while with the hotel 'goodies' as well, there is an organisation called Helping Hands UAE who would be very grateful for these kinds of donations. The lady who runs it gets her hubby to organise collections at various locations.

They give these items not only to labourers but also maids who have had to leave employers due to abuse and any others in Dubai who find themselves in need of a few little things like these.

Perhaps you could link up with them and direct the things you collect their way, as it seems they have the infrastructure in place already to distribute these items to those in need? If you have a few in your area collecting I'm sure they'd be happy to drop by once a month or so to pick up what you have stored away.
