  • Shop Online via the UOA Web Site

Avoid the crowds, cold weather and searching for a parking spot. Shop at http://www.uoa.org/donations_associates.htm where you skip the holiday shopping hassles and help UOA with each purchase. Use Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble Booksellers, igive.com and Buy for Charity to buy something for everyone on your list at hundreds of retailers including Gap, Target, Sharper Image, Disney Store and more.

 

  • And Speaking of Shopping…

Look for the latest in ostomy supplies from UOA’s Web site advertisers on our home page and at:  http://www.uoa.org/supplies_advertisers.htm where you will find a list of major ostomy product manufacturers and distributors. Learn about the latest in pouching systems, skin barriers, pastes, cleaners, deodorants, etc.
