More tips for a successful Welcome Kit Drive
- Pre-make bins with the kit lists taped to the outside. It makes it easier to remember to actually fill it up and bring it back AND the bins come in handy during apartment setups.
- Host a packing party where people bring supplies and assemble the kits together. You can also make "Welcome to our community" greeting cards.
- Include a gift card to Amazon, Safeway, Fred Meyer, or WinCo that can be used to supplement household items or fill a fridge.
