Community-Wide Food Drive Needed to Ensure Access to Food We are at an unprecedented moment. Without significant federal action, SNAP benefits, known as FoodShare in Wisconsin, will not be distributed beginning November 1. Nearly 65,000 people in Dane County relied on SNAP benefits at some point last year to access basic food. Many people— including our neighbors right here in Middleton — will need to turn to food pantries for their basic nutrition needs. In our community, that is WayForward Resources.
