Care Packages
Care packages are a great way to let your student know you are thinking of them!
Care packages are available for Move-in Day, Halloween, Fall finals, Valentine's Day, and Spring finals.
You will receive an email during the summer that describes the packages; order by the deadline to ensure your student receives a care package.
Handmade, Made Local
All packages are handmade, individually wrapped, and personally delivered to campus. Proceeds from care packages help fund programming and community-building efforts by SAU Residence Life.
