As families across Lakewood struggle with the fallout of a widespread SNAP fraud incident, Tomchei Shabbos is stepping up to provide critical assistance, working with county officials to secure emergency funds for those affected.
Tomchei Shabbos has been inundated with urgent requests from families who have seen their vital SNAP benefits vanish, leaving them unable to purchase food. For many, these funds are a lifeline, and their sudden disappearance has placed them in dire financial straits.
While emergency funds have been secured, the organization warns that resources are limited, and families in need should act quickly to request assistance.
Community members who require support are encouraged to email info@tomchei.org with the subject line “SNAP Assistance Request” to receive an application.
Wow this is really special. I just have 1 question why did some families have thousands of dollars on their snap cards??? Do they not use it?? How long will it stay in their account? If they don’t use it then maybe they don’t need to be reimbursed??
