Care Bags

with 22 comments

These suggestions go with the Heartlight article “Haunting Eyes …”

What are some good things to put into care bags for folks on the street? They need to be practical, inexpensive, and easy to do. Here is my list, but I’m looking for your input on this, too!

A few things on my list:

All Year Essentials
Water
Cheese Crackers
Peanut Bags (Or better, almonds and possibly cashews, since many are allergic to peanuts!)
Fast Food Certificates
Deodorant
Soap
Tooth Brush & Tooth Paste
Socks
Cap
Copy of the New Testament or Gospel of John

Other Things
Plastic Rain Poncho
Space Blanket
Camping Pillow
Fruit Juice
Beef Jerky

What would you add?
