Our Neighbors Need Us Now
Arizona leads the nation with the deepest cuts to SNAP. Over 450,000 Arizonans this past year have lost access to SNAP benefits. That's a roughly 55% cut. Approximately 200,000 of those people are children.
The families walking through our doors right now include people who were not seeking help six months ago. They're navigating a benefits system with long wait times, inaccessible online applications, and call-back systems that don't call back — often waiting more than a month just to find out if they qualify for help.
But there’s hope. For every person who relies on SNAP, seven more Arizonans can help.
Together, we can fill the gap.
How you can help:
In 2025 we launched our Feeding Our Neighbors Together initiative to rally our state to support those in need.
- Donate to provide meals to families in need. A $25 gift fills a food box.
- Host a food drive in your business, school, or neighborhood. We are especially in need of protein sources like canned tuna, peanut butter and soups.
- Volunteer your time. We feed families and individuals every day of the year and your help is needed.
If someone you know needs help:
