🎓Did You Know?🎓 According to a recent GAO report, 3.3 million college students were potentially eligible for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. Yet, 67% of those students reported not receiving them. . The USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service is teaming up with @usedgov’s office of @federalstudentaid to change this! Starting now, low-income students will receive annual emails from FSA with info about SNAP eligibility and how to apply. 📧💡 . 💻 Want to see if you’re eligible? Contact your state or local SNAP office: [https://lnkd.in/eU_N2Pse) . 📲 Learn more in our bio! 💜 Be Well, Be Yourself. . . . #CollegeLife #SNAPBenefits #FoodSecurity #StudentSupport #NutritionMatters #SNAP #BeYourself #BeWell #ResourcesForStudents #EducationAndNutrition
