Client: FNS
Campaign: Food Stamp Program
Length: 0:60
Title: “Playground”
 
  SFX: Ambient sounds: playground, children’s voices and laughter
 
MARGIE: My grandkids are my pride and joy. And there’s nothing they love more than a day at the park. But if I want to keep up with those little bundles of energy, I have to stay healthy and eat right.
 
GRANDKIDS: [Calling from a distance] Come on grandma!
 
MARGIE: Sounds simple, but it’s not always easy. That’s where food stamps come in... With my bills and doctor visits, things can really add up. And that doesn’t always leave enough to keep good food on the table. So I joined the Food Stamp Program. It helps me buy the groceries I need.
 
MARGIE:  Getting food stamps is based on income and other expenses. And for most Seniors like myself, the benefit is enough to make a real difference. I started by making a phone call.
 
MARGIE: Now when I tell my grandkids to eat their fruits and vegetables, they know I will too! Isn’t that right?
 
GRANDKIDS: Yes Grandma!!
