Snow alert! 🌨️ As winter storms impact Massachusetts, make sure your kitchen is ready.
Stock Your Pantry: Use your WICShopper app to ensure you’ve used your monthly benefits on shelf-stable staples like peanut butter, canned veggies, and whole-grain pasta.

Avoid the Rush: Check your benefit balance early so you don't have to brave the icy roads at the last minute!
Stay safe and stay home if you can, MA! 🏠❄️
