FoodShare Members Are Getting Additional FoodShare Benefits in December

If members are enrolled in FoodShare, they are getting additional FoodShare benefits in December to help during the COVID-19 pandemic. Starting in April 2021, all FoodShare members are getting at least $95 in additional benefits each month. Some households will get more to bring their benefit amount to the maximum monthly benefit amount for their household size.

The benefits will be put on member QUEST cards on December 19. They will be sent a letter the week of December 20 telling them that they got the additional FoodShare benefits and how much was put on their QUEST cards.

We are also checking that everyone that should have received additional benefits got them. As a result, some members may get their October benefits on December 10. This was originally scheduled for December 11.
