I think the list that Mary sent us from Greg was pretty unisex, and things anyone can use...T shirts, shorts, jeans, flipflops, and underwear. That plus baby stuff will see most people through just about anything. I would add to that list small toiletries, such as deodorant, the little bottles of shampoo and small soaps that you get in hotels; towels, and unisex type socks. Maybe razors, the throwaway type, small packs of kleenex, combs, toothbrushes, small tubes of toothpaste, things like that. People have nothing, remember...it's amazing how good you can feel just to comb your hair, wash your face and brush your teeth...especially when you are filthy and feeling the way those poor people must feel.
