Check your eligibility with the SNAP Calculator!

Welcome to Project Bread's free and confidential online SNAP Calculator! Answer the questions that follow to find out if you can get SNAP/food stamps.

It is COMPLETELY CONFIDENTIAL because you will not give us your name, address, or any information that tells us who you are.

This calculator has five simple steps. Answer questions about:
