More than 930,000 people in Washington depend on SNAP, which can provide up to $994 monthly for a family of four. With benefits ending soon, the community is stepping up big: Toasted has raised over $24,000 already — enough for 4,000 breakfasts and counting, with donations pouring in from around the world.

SNAP benefits are running dry for American families, and that hits home for the founders of Toasted Bagels & Coffee in Seattle.
