care packages
Gifts from home
Care packages are boxes or parcels of supplies sent to someone away from home—originally soldiers overseas, now also college students, hospitalized loved ones, or anyone who could use a boost.
The contents are typically practical items (food, toiletries, warm socks) mixed with personal touches meant to comfort and remind the recipient they're thought of: Her mom sent a care package full of homemade cookies and notes from the family.
