What is the ICPJ Michigan Food Stamp Challenge?

Could you live on $3 worth of food each day?

That’s all the average food stamp recipient gets. Three dollars a day, just $1 per meal.Can you imagine feeding your 14-year old growing son on that amount?

Yet even this small amount is under threat. Congress will vote on proposed cuts to Food Stamps this October. The time to act is now.

That’s why we’re asking you to take the Challenge. Try one living for one week from September 4-10 on just $21. Get a glimpse of what people living on food stamps face every week.

I will take the ICPJ Michigan Food Stamp Challenge!
