10 College Care Package Ideas

November 13, 2020

In the not so distant past, I was a college student. I recall brimming with excitement for all the new adventures to come, but also realizing that I was now mostly on my own. Luckily, I had grown accustomed to taking care of my laundry, cleaning up around the house and making dinner for myself, but there were so many things that I had taken for granted.

I was surrounded by thousands of people and tons of new friends, but there were many times where I felt lonely and homesick. Luckily, my school was only 30 miles from where I grew up and I often went home to visit family and friends. I couldn’t imagine was it was like for the students that were thousands of miles away from their families.

Even though it cannot replace quality time with loved ones, a care package is a great way to stay connected and support a friend or a loved one. I have compiled a list of 10 care package ideas to get your student through the school year. I have also included suggestions on what to include.
