Actually just about anything, but make sure that you have a good amount of what-ever you are going to dispence...this coming from experience.

I have found that hats...ballcaps, are a favourite.

Stay away from candy, unless sugar free of course.

Have a safe trip.

I am afraid you'd be mobbed

Something like this would be hard to control. Maybe some hard candy like sour balls....

Anything more will get you mobbed.

Keep your donations on a more organized plane and you will be getting a bigger bang for the work you are doing...If on the North Shore, there is an organization in Sosua that will be happy to take care of you. Try the Britannia Pub...Talk to Lindin...571 1959

Chocolate melts in the tropical heat.

Think of thier teeth!

Hell ya I would think that they LOVE it....but you must think of thier teeth, and thier access to dental work, and affordability.

Pencils.....notepads........etc.......

As I stated previously...once you start to give a few things away on the street, even as a random act...you will create an enviorment for yourself that you may not wish to be in the center of. It happened to the couple that we travelled with this past January.

There are many good threads on here (check out the "challenge" thread) with many good orginizations looking for donations.

Good luck, I am sure that you will hear tons more input.
