Due to the recent government shutdown, SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits have been paused — leaving many Salina families without the support they rely on to afford food, medicine, and other essentials.

In response, Salina Area United Way and Tony’s Pizza Events Center are launching a powerful initiative: SNAP Back Against Hunger: Food & Resources Fair

This event is more than a food drive — it’s a community movement to support our neighbors in need.

How you can help:

• Be a Collection Site (contact our office for more details)
• Donate non-perishable foods to any of our collection sites listed below
• Donate to our Emergency Relief Fund
• Volunteer for the event
• Share the Facebook Event and/or Event Flyer

If your organization would like to be a vendor at this event or cannot attend but would like to update your services with our database/resource guide, please fill out this form.

For more questions about the SNAP Back Against Hunger event please contact our office at sauw@unitedwaysalina.org or call785-827-1312.

This year’s Mistletoe Melodies brings the energy, music, and laughs with crowd-favorite HiFi Dueling Pianos.

HiFi will perform from the center of the room, surrounded by tables—creating an immersive experience that lets you sing, cheer, and be part of the show like never before!

United Is The Way

This Giving Tuesday, let’s unite to make a difference that lasts. Your gift powers programs and partners that provide early education, childcare support, mental health services, basic needs, and crisis response across Saline County.

Every gift stays local and strengthens the community we all share. If you haven’t contributed yet, you can give individually, through your workplace, or on behalf of your business or organization.

When we come together, we create change that matters—today and tomorrow.
