Wanting to put together some backpacks filled with cold weather stuff like hats gloves and a thrifted puff jacket to hand out to the Homeless in my area, what are some other inexpensive items you would recommend I put in them?

    I’m going to borrow some other suggestions that I just read as well, but maybe a survival backpack would be really helpful?

    Blanket

    Hand warmers

    Small medical kit

    multi-tool

    flashlight

    re-usable water bottle

    wet wipes

          In alot better place than I was a year ago, and want to pay it forward. Wish we could just tear this system down and rebuild it from the ground up to take care of people instead of our corporate overlords, but till that day I feel extremely blessed to be in a place to be able to help out like this. Even if i can only ease a few folks discomfort its better than wallowing in apathy and drinking everyday like i did for the past decade.
