Infant Feeding Company Bobbie Steps Up to Support Families Impacted by Government Shutdown with Deepest Discount Ever for SNAP-Eligible Parents

To ease the strain on families during the shutdown, Bobbie is offering SNAP recipients its deepest discount ever—$14 per can ($1 per ounce) for Organic Original Infant Formula

HEATH, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As the federal government shutdown continues to put millions of American families at risk of losing access to essential nutrition programs, mom-founded and led infant formula company Bobbie is stepping in to support families who rely on this federal funding. Starting today, families currently enrolled in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) can purchase Bobbie Organic Original Infant Formula at $14 per can ($1 per ounce), plus reduced shipping. This price matches other low cost formula options, including generic and store brand labels.

“The government shutdown is putting vulnerable families at risk of losing their benefits that allow them access to essential nutrition for their babies,” said Laura Modi, Co-Founder and CEO of Bobbie and mom of four. “At Bobbie, we know parents have enough stress. And as a mom, I know feeding can’t wait on funding. While they’re shutting down, we’re stepping up to support families who are days away from having to pay for these essential goods without the support they are qualified for.”

When the recent government shutdown began, Bobbie for Change, the impact and policy arm of Bobbie, stepped in and donated $850k worth of infant formula to the area adjacent to our Heath, Ohio manufacturing facility, through The Mid-Ohio Food Collective (part of The Feeding America network), ensuring immediate access to formula for local families in need. Now, as a second step, Bobbie is extending its commitment by offering a substantial direct-to-parent discount on its trusted original infant formula for SNAP-eligible families.

The offer includes:

• 1 Can of Bobbie Organic Original – $14/can ($1 per ounce)
• 3-Can Pack – $42 ($1 per ounce)
• Must currently be enrolled in SNAP
• Purchases cannot be made with EBT. Limit 2 per customer. New customers only.
• This offer is good while supplies last; discounted shipping fees will vary depending on order size

Bobbie’s initiative underscores the company’s belief that access to essential nutrition is a bipartisan issue that should be prioritized—particularly for America’s most vulnerable population: babies in their first year of life. “We hope that during this time, when the benefits that 40 million families rely on are at risk, we can do our small part as a mom-led, American-made company to help ease stress and uncertainty,” said Modi.
