mRelief is a tech non-profit that helps connect low-income Americans to the SNAP (food stamps) program. Through our partnerships with government, we are able to help eligible SNAP applicants get approved for benefits on the fastest timeline possible.
We are looking for outreach volunteers to help complete SNAP applications by phone. This is a great chance to make a direct, tangible impact on those experiencing food insecurity - getting approved for SNAP means that a family will receive, on average, an extra $255 per month to spend on groceries. We will provide training and support!
