BCMW Project BREAD, in conjunction with Midland Area Agency on Aging and the Illinois Department on Aging, will be taking applications for coupons redeemable at the Farmer’s Markets in Centralia, Mt Vernon and Salem starting Monday, July 25.
Applications will be done on Monday, Wednesday and Friday 8-12pm. Due to Covid-19, applications will only be done over the phone through the main office. Eligibility requirements are as follows.
You must be age 60 or older and be at 185% of the federal poverty level or less. A short application process is required to obtain coupons and they will be done over the phone. When the application is complete, you will be given a time to come to the office to sign the application and pick up the coupons. If you are unable to come to the office, you can designate a proxy to pick them up for you. The proxy must bring a photo ID.
