November Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and WIC Benefits Delayed

Due to the ongoing government shutdown, millions of Americans who receive SNAP benefits will have their benefits delayed, beginning November 1st. SNAP is funded federally, and administered by states to assist low-income families in buying food.

Every Kid Fed has formulated a plan to not only ramp up and expand snack bags locally, we will provide $25 Walmart gift cards to families that have had their benefits frozen. You also do not have to live in California to receive this donation. Our gift card donation sign up will be available the first week of November.

If further assistance is needed, please use our contact page.

Last, it is important to use the remaining balance on your SNAP/CalFresh card, and utilize your local food banks and churches.

For more information on local food assistance programs and resources, please visit Cafoodbanks.org.

For those seeking additional food assistance, you can find your local food bank by visiting the Feeding America website. They offer a comprehensive directory to help connect you with resources in your area. This support is vital in building a healthy future for children and families in need.

These are trying times, but we are here to support you.

With love,
