The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides assistance to 41 million people suffering from food insecurity by providing them a monthly benefit to use on food purchases. - At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, as millions of people lost their jobs, SNAP benefits were temporarily increased to help low-income families.
- With the reduction of SNAP benefits on top of rising inflation for food, we've seen food insecurity increase and demand for our programs has skyrocketed.
- HelloFresh aims to change the way people eat, forever, inclusive of those facing food insecurity.
