Seattle, WA – August 23, 2006 -- "You guys rock. My kids love you and me for finding you!! Thanks.” As a brand new crop of students enter college as freshmen this autumn, feedback like this is not uncommon at SendCare.com care packages.
For almost seven years, empty nesters worldwide have been receiving a major source of help in the ‘staying in touch with the kids’ department. With a few simple clicks of the mouse at www.sendcare.com, moms, dads, aunts, uncles and anyone else can create a custom care package for their college student online. All of the ingredients are laid out on the screen, from favorite snacks and fun toys to practical items such as laundry detergent and No Doz.
While most college administrators recommend that parents give freshmen a chance to transition to college life independently, many advocate care packages as a method to ease the process. Unlike email, care packages provide students with a tangible source of stress relief, with a customizable, eclectic mix of comfort foods, silly items and personal words of encouragement.
As a family owned business, SendCare.com emphasizes the importance of support and communication in the midst of the current world climate. According to owner Alayna Setter, “If current events have taught us anything, it is the importance of the family as a basic structure and the need for togetherness. Our care packages provide one simple method of helping families through a potentially rough spot with relative ease.”
In addition to college care packages, SendCare.com provides military care packages, custom care packages, and shipping to over 30 countries. Priority shipping to United States addresses and military APO and FPO addresses is free.
