SNAP Challenge

Step up to the plate, Minnesota!

Starting on November 25, just before the holidays, we’re asking you to live on a SNAP
budget for three days in an effort to highlight the difficulty that our community faces every day.

SNAP is an essential part of our hunger relief ecosystem here in Minnesota. While there is a strong sense of gratitude for this means-tested provision, we recognize the significant gap between survival and a thriving existence. Currently, the minimum monthly benefit is about $23.00*.

To learn more about the SNAP Challenge, view the SNAP Challenge Flyer below.

We encourage you to share your experience during the SNAP Challenge on social media or other outlets you choose, we can amplify the conversation, raise awareness, and aim to drive long-lasting social and policy changes that move us closer to ending food insecurity in our state.

*For single-person households.
