Frequently Asked Questions

Why a Care Package?
Parents sometime think that in this digital age, a text or cell phone call is enough. But consider how many calls and texts students get these days! A care package is tangible proof to your student that their family is thinking of them. It shows extra thought. And you better believe your student will walk tall across campus with their box of goodies while other students wish they had one too!

Why order from CarePackages.org?
We've been assembling care packages by hand for students for thirty years. Yes, we're older than the Internet! That means we know which snacks students like best and which ones end up in the trash. All our packages are filled with yummy treats to nourish your student all through finals. We even guarantee you and your student will be pleased!

Exams Start Soon, Can I Still Order?
Of course you can! Select the care package you want to send and order, we know the exam period dates and will make sure it arrives on time. If you are reading this only a day or two before final exams start, it's probably better to call us at 1-877-942-7887.

My student has allergies, are your packages safe?
We do have a selection of allergy-free packages, such as gluten-free, nut-free, etc. They are on a different page though, so please click on this link to see them.

Are you associated with the school?
We've partnered with colleges and universities from the start, over thirty years and counting. So you can be sure that we know what students on campus like and also that the school selected us from all the other options to provide care packages to students like yours.
