What’s inside the little brown bag?

For generations the brown paper bag has served as a simple way to package a meal on the go.

School children use them to take lunch to school. Busy workers use them to transport their mid-day meal. And at YMOW, brown paper bags are used to serve the chilled food that is our clients’ evening dinner.

The brown bags in our Sponsor-a-Senior program symbolize the important work that Ypsilanti Meals nutrition, enjoyment, a safety check, and so much more than just a meal.

By purchasing one of these bags, you can help ensure our homebound neighbors receive the food and services they need to remain safe and happy in their own homes.

Choose a donation level that works for you. As you enjoy the sweet treat inside, we hope you will reflect on the good your donation has done and the important job of the little brown bag.
