What to do if I run a for profit LLC company and a friend of mine wants to sell his products through my company 100% for charity?
Would it be legal for a for profit LLC to to sell items 100% for charity? The ODT says I should collect sales tax on non-profit sales but beyond that, is there anything else I need to know?

Based upon what you have written about I see nothing illegal if your business entity sold products for a non-profit. However, to protect your interests in your entity, you should consult with a business attorney to discuss assorted issues that may come up if you engage in the venture that you may not have thought about.
