I would like to donate catheters. Any ideas?

My dad has passed and I have hundreds of self-catheters to donate. They are 14-inch catheters that are in individual and sterilized sealed packages, still in the sealed boxes that was shipped to us. I also have 5 tubes of cream with the foil still on the tops to show they were not opened. We do not, nor have we gotten covid. I would request that you pick them up in Fort Lupton, CO.
If you cannot take them all, I would request you take the whole box so as not to have open containers.

I would check with any of the hospice agencies in your area, along with your Senior Services, as both in my area accept unopened items like you're referring to.

You should join Nextdoor.com and post it to your local community. I think only private individuals would be willing to take these. For liability reasons no organization would openly accept your donation, even if the products are still sealed.
