In 2011, 1.75 million Ohioans received food assistance benefits, more commonly known as food stamps. The Ohio’s Community Action Agencies are initiating a Food Stamp Challenge April 30-May 4 in honor of Community Action Month to give participants a view of what life can be like for these low-income Ohioans.
As we embark on the Food Stamp Challenge and see how difficult it is to live on $23 for one week, we should keep in mind that things could get worse for low-income Americans if proposed cuts are made to the program as mentioned in this article.
