In response to COVID-19, Samsara Luggage created The Essentials, a safety kit filled with protective products to support health and greater peace of mind. The curated safety kit includes some of the most sought-after products like gloves, masks and hand sanitizers, which will be shared with charities and healthcare workers in need of supplies as well as consumers. While the kit will be available for purchase for about $20, customers who purchase a Samsara suitcase will receive the kit for free.

Although far fewer people than usual are traveling during the time of the Coronavirus pandemic, Samsara Luggage created The Essentials to support people now and in the future when global travel is again advisable.
