Default Uniform donation for new hires

Since new hires don't get a uniform allowance, is there a program in place to donate extra pieces that come with my allowance? Specifically, I was thinking of ordering FO epaulets and FO metal wings instead of CA and donating them to a new hire, since I don't need yet another set. I'd also like to contribute maybe 2 of my 8 shirts or so. Can I drop these in the crew room? Base administrators office?

I'll wait a day for an answer before ordering more crap I don't need and cluttering up my closet.

New hires do get an allowance… just not a jacket.

I don't think that's correct. Mine was payroll deducted.

or read the CBA.
5-F-2 Pilots will purchase their initial uniform.
5-F-3 The Company will provide uniform replacements from the
Vendor for eight shirts, two pants, and two ties every 18 months
due to normal wear and tear.
