Kind of off topic, but I found a book (around 60) original photos from US WWII solders getting ready to go to the Pacific while stationed at pendleton and on Hawaii. Some include identifying information like names. It occurred to me that their family members may want some images.

Is there anyone aware of a place to upload them so that their family can find them and downloadview them?

Flickr has on occasion been used for those purposes. Typically someone will set-up a group with a specific purpose. Search for some groups, ask them some questions. The users/members tend to be very helpful, in most cases.
I wouldn't mind scanning it, but I just don't have the time to do the work to search people out. I'll probably get them scanned and upload to Flickr, then do a post on reddit wwii
