Financial Assistance · Wisconsin · Free

Small emergency grants for low-income workers facing temporary crisis. A first stop for families discovering the senior never applied for benefits they've qualified for, sometimes for years. Extra Help (Part D Low-Income Subsidy) can be applied for online at ssa.gov in under 15 minutes. Most seniors leave $5,000-10,000 a year in benefits on the table because no one tells them what they qualify for. All services free of charge to qualifying seniors and family caregivers.
