Where can I dontate unused or old hearing aids?

I have several hearing aids that are no longer in use. I have given some to HeadStart as they train kids about people with disabilities. But I still have some and I don’t know if there are any places that could use it or recycle it.
Only one of them still works. The other ones don’t because each one has a typical 7-year span. They are in-the-canal hearing aids and I don’t know if they would work with repair.

The reason HeadStart uses them is so that kids will be educated when they see people with hearing aids and know what they are for.

How do I comfortably wear eyeglasses and BTE hearing aids?

I wear BTE hearing aids and eyeglasses. I think each of them are designed to fit on top of the ear, without any other device on the ear. As it is, my ears get tired from having both devices on them. And if I were to wear on-the-ear headphones, my ears would be even more tired. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, how do you deal with it?
