Hi everyone, If anybody is interested in sending their penpal a care package, I found a site that ships them and they are pre-approved for each institution they go to. I was surprised at the decent variety of snacks, drink mix, stationary, even clothing and other supplies. The link is: www.accesscatalog.com/shop/index.htmlIf anybody knows of any other care package companies, please post the link... Thanks  |

If anyone is interested, I'll set up a pay pal account. you could all pool together or something. |

See, it is comments like this that really don't belong here, in my opinion. I mean this is a support site. We post things that would help others 'support' our loved ones and friends.

They don't have to be searched like regular mail and packages. Hope that helps |

I took a look at a few vendors...Neat stuff, but they could partner with Amazon and offer books and magazines...

I think my pack didn't got delivered yet...  I can only wait... Mike, the thing I am referring to is something different from books and magazined that can be sent ( not in all states) but.. sometimes... I am referring to food and clothes package; they can receive food and clothes twice a year, only from 1 single person and only during a specific period of time; this time it's may/june. Time is running and they didn't deliver it yet... well, I'll see... |

What I meant was the vendor could partner and offer the books and stuff...One stop shopping...However, they do have a lot of things that people could use...I would wonder if they could offer a package for dorm students and their parents...so the kid would not have to shop as soon as they get to college...believe me, after moving in, the last thing I wanted to do was go shopping...

But they don't offer packages! You have to pay them!  |

But that is why students have parents... The parents get a catalog and send the stuff for the student...
