13 billion dollars in food stamp benefits go unclaimed each year due to cumbersome processes in accessing needed supports. In Illinois for example, food stamp applicants need to fill out an 18-page application or sit through a 90-minute phone call, and submit as many as 10 required documents. In other states, the application can be more than 20 pages long and involve hours at the public aid office.

mRelief has built an easy-to-use platform on web and text messaging for families to find out if they qualify for food stamps. We text 10 simple questions that take less than 5 minutes to answer. Over 230,000 families in 42 states have used mRelief to secure food stamps and other public support.
