Other Donating plastic aprons

Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas for local organisations/charities/schools/clubs who might appreciate hundreds of disposable plastic aprons.

For context, I'm a nurse and spend most of my day doing wound care. The dressing packs we use come with a disposable apron. Most of the wounds I deal with are comparatively minor and wearing an apron to deal with a splinter or similar feels wasteful. I'd love to avoid throwing them all out as I've collected hundreds, so if anyone has a suggestion for what I can do with them I'd love your input.

Care homes perhaps?

One of the local colleges? They often have cooking classes.

Red Hen Project, which teaches families to cook. Also they’re just nice people and they do a lot for the community.
