Check out the website 72hours.org for ideas. Good starter gifts could be flashlight, basic first aid kit for the GO BAG and even a good mulit-purpose tool. Freebies could be printed copies of what they need in a small binder, local maps are sometimes provided by the city or county and pamphlets on first aid training and cpr could be added. You could also do a list of local emergency numbers and radio staions and put that in a small binder.
