I seem to have a surplus supply of Humalog pens due to reduced dosing needed due to activity. I would like to donate to any organization that can give to those in need. I don’t want to mail due to postal regulations on shipping meds. If you have any ideas or if in the Tucson area and can’t afford your insulin please respond.

You could contact your local ADA, they may know of local diabetes camps, etc that may accept them.

I’m sure your endocrinologist can advise you. Mine took all of my surplus supplies/insulin.
