COMMODITY SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD PROGRAM (CSFP)
Senior Program (CSFP)
​​Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) is a federally funded program for people who are 60+ years of age and whose household income is 150% or less of the federal poverty guidelines. Each month we provide a 40 lb. box of nutritious food to over 850 seniors throughout Clark, Champaign, and Logan Counties. Look at the chart below to see if you qualify for the CSFP program.
​
Participants who meet income guidelines will receive a monthly food package that includes items such as canned meat, vegetables, fruits, fruit juices, potatoes, and hot and cold cereal. According to the USDA, these packages do not provide a complete diet, but provide a good source of nutrients that is typically lacking in the diets of senior citizens.
