The staff at United Methodist Children's Services wants to share some exciting news – our agency was the site for an important media announcement regarding a significant contribution from Kohl’s to Hunger Task Force. The announcement also focused on the significant decrease in Food Share benefits starting in March here in Wisconsin – with the average loss being $132 per month for an individual receiving benefits. This will greatly increase the food needs for families in our service area, increasing the number of items we need to keep in stock. Please share the news of the Food Share benefits decrease far and wide so we can pull together as a community to help fill the needs gap.
The media coverage is below, as well as an impact video that Hunger Task Force created for the announcement.
