Children under the age of 18 from Wareham and the Tri-Town are eligible to receive ready-made boxed meals at the YMCA and Brandy Hill Apartments.

The program, launched by the Marion Institute in collaboration with the Shah Family Foundation and the Greater Boston YMCA, offers boxed meals to-go at the two locations on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Meals are available for pickup on Tuesdays and Fridays from noon to 2 p.m. at the Brandy Hill Apartments at 12 State Street in Wareham and from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. (or until food runs out) in the Gleason Family YMCA parking lot at 33 Charge Pond Road in Wareham.

On Tuesdays, enough breakfasts and lunches for three days will be provided. On Fridays, meals will be provided for four days. 

The meals are free and no ID is required. Children do not need to be present when meals are picked up.
