Step 1:
Find an empty shoe box or any other similar container that has a removable lid. You don't have to wrap it, but we do encourage wrapping! This makes the care package feel like a gift to the child. Please make sure you wrap the shoebox lid separately. This allows for inspection before the shoe box is given to the child and it also allows the child to continue to use the container for storage of their belongings.
Step 2:
Select if you would like to pack a shoe box for a boy or a girl. You may also choose to create a unisex shoe box containing items appropriate for either gender.
Step 3:
Select an age category
-
-
2-4 years old.
-
5-9 years old.
-
10-14 years old.
-
15-18 years old.

Step 4:
Fill your shoe box with items from the suggestion lists below. We recommend 1 clothing item, 2-3 hygiene items, 1-2 books or school supplies, and 1-2 toys.
Step 5:
Attach a label to the short side of the shoe box. Write on the label if the shoe box is for a boy, girl, or unisex. Also write the age category selected.
