We did that at shcool every year... everyone sent one... and we also did it for the local homeless men and womens shelters. Some class' would do OCC, some would do homeless women and some homeless men.
I really enjoy it! we put chocolate and a x-mas card with everything too!

Carly, that's cool you guys did it in school.
You're not allowed putting chocolate in these though as it'll melt!!
