Eaton Rapids Weekend Food Backpack Program

Commonly known as
the ​"Backpack" Program


For more information, contact program coordinator, Cathy Taylor at catherinetaylor110@sbcglobal.net
An Administrative Assistant at ERPS, dedicated to seeing that all children are fed, shared a disturbing story. Early one morning, she saw a very young boy rummaging through the garbage looking for something to eat. She did what she could do for him, but isn’t it a shame that our neighbor’s children don’t have enough to eat?  They aren’t able to concentrate & learn with hunger gnawing away their attention.

You can help!
We unload the truck and package approximately 400 bags of food, keeping a month ahead of distribution.Delivery time will be given via email the week before delivery.

Packing days will be the 2nd Tuesday of each month, September through April.
(Location: Union Street Center (map it), 8:30 AM until approximately 10:00 AM)

For more information, contact Cathy Taylor by phone (517) 231-2895. 

Checks should be made out to United Methodist Women with
 “Eaton Rapids Weekend Food Backpack Program” in the Memo line. Mail to First United Methodist Church of Eaton Rapids c/o U.M.W., 600 S. Main St., Eaton Rapids, MI 48827.   Thank you!
