SNAP can help seniors stretch budgets and improve health!

Are older adults that you serve struggle with hunger? Feeding Wisconsin can help! Feeding Wisconsin is the state association of Feeding America food banks in our state. Our FoodShare Outreach program works to provide information to potentially eligible households not currently utilizing FoodShare benefits. These benefits provide households with money for groceries. We have found that many older adults are stuck making tough decisions between paying for food, utility bills and medical needs each month. We believe that by educating individual about the FoodShare program and providing application assistance, we are helping people stretch their budget, making it possible for them to pay other monthly expenses.

We are hoping that you can help! Please consider including an article in your own local senior center news to spread the word. You can use our template here . You can also connect individuals directly to our services by having them call our statewide FoodShare Helpline at 1-877-366-3635 (or at one of our local numbers at 715-257-4558; 920-644-5448; or 608-467-1657) or go online at www.GetAQUESTCard.org.
