Hi Marvin
There are a number of pantries in Dallas that can help you. Free canned food, with maybe some fresh stuff, also can be given out. Find details on a food pantry in Dallas.

Hello,
My name is Marvin and I live in Richardson in Dallas County. My situation has become desperate due to a layoff from a job in March. I applied for food stamps then which helped and I am not starting my new job until September 26. But my SNAP was just cut back for some unknown reason which I am waiting on social services to tell me why.
At the same time my 17 year old daughter has just gotten sick and needs medications and food supplements. We both are in a situation where we are needing financial assistance, food and medical assistance. Also vitamins for my daughter which are hard to do with less money on our SNAP card. Please have someone reach out to me as soon as possible.

Where to get food now that SNAP was cut?

I was on SNAP but when cost of living for SSA increased inn January 2024 the amount did not do the same for SNAP eligibility requirements.
So, me and both my kids haven't had any SNAP benefits since December 2023 and I reached out to United Way and many other places to get assistance on food and it has been impossible to get help.
I've reached out for groceries, food and toilet paper assistance and I can't find anyone who can assist since our SNAP was cut.
Please help, my cupboard will be empty any day and I have 2 teenage kids that are both full time students.
