On Our Minds

Working with so many organizations across multiple issue areas gives us a unique view into what’s happening in the social sector. This is where we share our insights and ruminations.
Holiday brownies
Ending the year on a sweeter note

Brownies have a special place in On-Ramps’ culture. Among other things, we support Greyston Bakery, a bakery that makes brownies to help people facing barriers to employment. We also enjoy giving brownies to our clients, partners, and friends during the holiday season.

This year, along with so many other parts of life, the pandemic has challenged us to reimagine this tradition. So, we’re sharing our On-Ramps holiday brownie recipe to bake at home. We hope it makes this season a bit sweeter for you and your families and friends.

Warmly,
The On-Ramps Team
