1. Thank you EFerrari...

I'm writing right now!

OK, now I'm perplexed. My mail program will not send the message. It says that it's a rejected E-mail address.

On edit #2

I went to the website and clicked the link with the E-mail address and it went right through.

2. Awesome.

I love this idea. :)

3. I got a letter back...

We have already assigned all our Santa requests, but we would like to provide all our youth with a hygiene kit along with their gift. Can you help by purchasing some tubes of toothpaste - smaller sizes are better - and shipping them/dropping them off? Our address is 50 E 7th St NYC NY 10003

4. Wow, that's pretty cool! I wonder if that really small size

of toothpaste is sold any more -- the one that would fit in your pocket and looked like a toy? Well, it's nice to see people reaching out. A nice spot in a difficult time. :hi:

5. Sure. I get them all the time for work.

Look in the "Travel Size" section of your local grocery store's HBA department. Or try the local drug store; they usually have travel sizes, too.
