Congress passed the largest cut to SNAP in the program’s history last year, stripping $187 billion from a program that supports 38 million Americans. The House Farm Bill did nothing to reverse it. The Senate is writing its own version, & we need it to protect and strengthen SNAP!

Today marks 80 years of the National School Lunch Program.
For generations, school meals have helped reduce hunger and support student success. We're celebrating this milestone and the impact school meals continue to have every day.

We’re thrilled to share that Project Bread received a grant from Sincere Foundation! With this generous grant, Sincere Foundation directly supports Project Bread in helping food-insecure families put food on the table and advancing sustainable, long-term solutions to hunger.

🎉 The Healthy Incentives Program (HIP) is about to reach an incredible milestone—$100 million earned by Massachusetts families since 2017! That investment has generated $188 million in local economic activity, strengthening our communities and supporting local farms.

At a time of rising food insecurity and reduced federal support, HIP is a lifeline for SNAP households. Thank you to our legislators for funding HIP in the FY27 budget and standing with us year after year!

But our work isn’t done. HIP’s success relies on families accessing SNAP, and they need better access. Additional funding for DTA caseworkers will help more eligible people access SNAP and HIP.

Last week, the Massachusetts Senate finalized their version of the FY27 state budget and we want to thank @senrobynkennedy & the 21 cosponsors of an amendment (half the Senate) to increase funding to expand access to SNAP by hiring more DTA case workers to expand access to SNAP.

With 40% of our neighbors struggling with food insecurity, we urge the Legislature to include the strongest anti-hunger proposals in its final FY27 budget.

All across Massachusetts, students are reaping the benefits of free school meals. Universal school meals alleviate financial stress for families while ensuring kids and teens can eat nutritious and balanced meals at school.

We frequently hear stories like this from callers to our FoodSource Hotline. People deserve to get the SNAP benefits they need.

These stories are not unique experiences. In March, 81% of calls to DTA were unanswered, meaning most people couldn’t reach a live worker. Join the Action Team to stay up-to-date: mailchi.mp/4c44ac6e9cc9/1cx5…

Over the past year, nearly 140,000 individuals—including 48,000 children—have lost SNAP benefits, largely due to shifting requirements and difficulties connecting with DTA.
