FoodShare Wisconsin was created to help stop hunger and to improve nutrition and health. FoodShare helps people with limited money buy the food they need for good health.
Each month, people across Wisconsin get help from FoodShare. They are people of all ages who have a job but have low incomes, are living on small or fixed income, have lost their job, are retired or disabled and not able to work.
The State of Wisconsin provides information about spending FoodShare benefits and sets criteria for what can and what cannot be purchased. For more information please see the Spending Your Benefits site developed by Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
