In response to the recent government shutdown, which has halted SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits, the Salina Area United Way, in partnership with Tony’s Pizza Events Center, is launching a powerful community initiative: SNAP Back Against Hunger.
Free and open to the public!
The SNAP Back Food & Resources Fair is a call to action for the Salina community to come together and support families who are now facing increased food insecurity due to the disruption in federal assistance. With SNAP benefits paused, many households are struggling to afford groceries, medicine, and other essentials. This is more than a food drive — it’s a movement. A united front against hunger. A chance to show that when one of us struggles, we all feel it — but when we come together, we all thrive.
