Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels provides nutritious meals, social contact and other services for the homebound elderly, ill and disabled in eastern Washtenaw County, to enable them to enjoy healthier, safer, and more independent lives.

Thanks to the Washtenaw County Health Department’s Senior Project, clients of Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels can now receive fresh fruits and vegetables from the local farmers market. YMOW is serving as a proxy for seven clients. Put simply, we shop using the client’s market vouchers and they enjoy the purchases.
