Care Packages

Several of you have asked us about receiving care packages in Zambia. Yes we are able to receive them at our p.o. box!

Tidwell Family
Box 630260
Choma, Zambia

Packages are very expensive to mail, so the best thing to do is probably go in with a group of people, like a Sunday School class at your church.

You can pick up a box from the post office called a flat-rate box. The cost is then about $56 to mail and you can fill it as heavy as you want.

Here are some ideas of things we would love!!

Fruit snacks/fruit rollups for kids (any kinds of snacks would be great!)
granola bars
chocolate chips
m&ms
Dvds (check out the $5 dvds from Walmart! - we get bored at night!)

Also, we have several teams coming April-June, so you could always just put together some stuff to send with a team! Thanks for asking!! We love getting mail!
