- Every year Millions of Americans go without because they are not receiving all of the benefits for which they are eligible.
- Every year billions of dollars in public funds go untouched and billions in tax credits go unclaimed.
- Every year The Benefit Bank® closes the gap between public funds and people in need.
Designed to bring people closer to stability and closer to self-sufficiency, this free web-based service simplifies and centralizes the process of applying for many state and federal benefits for low and moderate-income individuals and families.
Developed for use by a wide range of community based, faith-based, governmental, job-training, healthcare or social service agencies, The Benefit Bank can be part of a community-wide response to poverty.
Community and faith-based organizations, social service agencies, food pantries, job training programs, and homeless shelters are among the groups using The Benefit Bank to help people file Federal and State Income Taxes, and apply for publicly sponsored programs like CHIP, Food Stamps, LIHEAP, and more - at one convenient location and at no cost.
