The Organizers truly appreciate the support from shoppers, vendors, volunteers and the City of Waltham. Now we are asking for an even bigger show of support—donate as generously as you can to help us rebuild our SNAP Match Program. 

One year after SNAP dollars were first introduced to the WFM, the Match Program was established. Money was raised to disburse up to an additional $10 on a weekly basis for EBT cardholders. This benefitted both the shoppers and local farmers and vendors. The first year (2012) the Program ran, SNAP sales doubled; this year, the demand for matching was over $10,000. Clearly, there is an ongoing need to provide for those living with food insecurity and that is why we’re asking for a helping hand.
