Hey folks, it's getting cold, worried about folks in my area.

Would y'all prefer a care package with socks, wet wipes, a lighter, some candy and clif bars, or would you prefer the equivalent in cash? I figure some things are probably hard to get to shops to purchase, but I wanted to ask folks who have been there and know what's most helpful.

If you would prefer a care package, what are some important essentials that you'd want to have in it?

    I was homeless for one winter in a cold place. I would have preferred the cash, but your list would have been good too. The hardest things to get for free that I really needed were socks, toilet paper and blankets. I could get free clothes at a couple places, but they never had socks.
