A year after federal changes to SNAP, communities across the country are continuing to feel the impact (https://civileats.com/2026/07/16/a-year-into-the-republican-tax-bill-snap-is-reeling/). As more households face new work requirements and barriers to keeping benefits, it's more important than ever to know your options and where to turn for help.

If you or someone you know has questions about SNAP eligibility, work requirements, or recent changes, visit SaveMySNAP.org. This free resource can help you understand how the changes may affect you, connect with support, and find the information you need to keep food on the table.

No one should have to navigate these changes alone. Learn more today at SaveMySNAP.org.

Foodlink offers a wide array of options for organizations, groups or individuals looking to donate food to support our mission.

PUPs help connect communities with nutritious food by bringing distributions directly to where they're needed most.

We're grateful for the partnership that helps ensure local seniors have access to healthy food and valuable resources close to home. 🥕🍎

“When they ring it all up, I barely have anything in my cart and I am like, ‘What on earth did I just buy?’”

Two years ago, we collected receipts from people across the U.S. We thought now would be a good time to look at their spending again.
