I had two jobs and two hungry boys.
And it was hard to keep good food on the table. Sure I thought about
SNAP, but I didn’t think we’d qualify. But we did.
MALE ANNCR:
SNAP. It's the new name for the federal Food Stamp Program.
SARA:
SNAP is a big help,
especially with rent and all the bills I’ve got to pay. So now when
money is low, I don’t have to worry about keeping good food on the
table.
SARA:
I use the SNAP electronic card to buy
healthy foods, like fruits, vegetables and whole grains. The card
works like a bankcard in the checkout line. So I can feed my family
right when money’s tight.
MALE ANNCR:
You or someone
you know may have a low income and be eligible for nutrition
assistance. To learn more about the program or how to apply, call

SNAP. Putting healthy food within reach. A message from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.
