Laker Care Kits 2026

Give your Laker a finals week boost 💙

November 9 through 23, give your Laker a treat right when they need it most. For a gift of $25, you can reserve a Laker Care Kit packed with snacks and a stress ball for your student to pick up on campus before finals week. Plus, part of your gift will help stock Replenish, GVSU's campus food pantry, so you're supporting other Lakers too.

Only 500 kits are available, so don't wait to grab one. Kits will be ready for pickup on campus December 9 and 10, 2026 (we won't be shipping them, so make sure your student can stop by). Limit one care kit per order, but you can submit as many individual orders as you like!

Send your Laker some love, give today!
