Subject: Free no-sign-in tool for finding assistance programs

Hi [Name],

I wanted to share BenefitsGPS, a free site that helps people describe what they need and find programs to contact for housing, food, healthcare, childcare, jobs, utilities, and emergency support.

It does not make eligibility decisions. It gives referral suggestions people can verify directly with providers.

It may be useful for staff, volunteers, patrons, clients, students, patients, or community members as a quick starting point:

Thank you.

Email this share kit to libraries, pantries, churches, clinics, schools, community colleges, shelters, workforce centers, and mutual-aid groups.

2. Print the flyer

Post it on resource boards, front desks, outreach tables, laundromats, community rooms, and volunteer binders.
