The government program offers families a monthly subsidy. Find out who can receive it and how to apply for the assistance.
The government launched a pioneering proposal aimed at helping those in precarious circumstances. The project named “Food and Hope” grants a monthly subsidy of R$ 80 to families in such conditions. These families can use the amount to purchase food, hygiene products, and other essential goods at participating establishments.
Thus, the government distributes a card to each family selected by the program. It should be noted that beneficiaries cannot withdraw the amount in cash, as it is intended solely for purchases. The initiative aims to ensure adequate nutrition, and the amount provided can offer some financial relief to these families, who often face limited monthly income.

Who qualifies for the ‘Food and Hope’ card and how can they apply?
The “Food and Hope” Card is intended for families in Paraná with an income of up to R$200 per member who are registered with CadÚnico. Their information must have been updated no more than two years ago. In addition, it is crucial to emphasize that the benefit prioritizes families not enrolled in the Bolsa Família program.
Families wishing to receive the subsidy can check their eligibility online. After this step, the head of the family must go to a Social Assistance Reference Center (Cras) and request the benefit, bringing their CPF or Voter Registration Card.
What should you do if there are problems with the card?
