There are "kits" that can be made very inexpensively -
they're called "Health Kits". These Health Kits should include:

1 washcloth
1 hand towel
1 bar of soap
1 fingernail clipper
1 toothbrush
1 tube of toothpaste
1 dental floss
1 deodorant
1 comb (full size, not pocket size)
1 small pkg of bandaids (8-10 bandaids)
1 purse size facial tissue

Put all into a gallon size ziploc bag

These kits cost about $10-12 each to make. I made 8 of them for $83.00

There are also a lot of items that are desperately needed. Below is a
list of some of the main items:

Below items should be new:
· Sheets
· Pillows
· Paper goods such as plates, cups, napkins, disposable silverware -
forks, knives, spoons
· Bottled water (no glass containers)
· Single serving snacks such as Pop-Tarts and cereal bars, chips,
pretzels, cookies, candies, crackers, canned fruit
· Peanut butter
· Heat and eat foods such as chili, stew, canned pasta with sauce and
canned vegetables
· Any other single serving foods that don't require refrigeration
· MREs (Meals Ready To Eat)
· Baby formula and bottles
· baby shirts or one-piece body suits
· baby washcloths
· dressing gowns or robes
· baby sleepers
· baby sweater open in the front
· receiving blankets
· towels
· sleeping bags
· shampoo
· disposable baby diapers
· Powdered baby formula
· Jarred baby food
· Games and toys

Below items can be used but in very good condition:
