Sun Bucks: Summer EBT Benefits for Families

Sun Bucks (formerly known as Summer EBT) is a program designed to help families purchase nutritious food for their school-aged children during the summer months when school meals are not available. Eligible families will receive $120 per child to use toward groceries this summer. Many families will be automatically enrolled and do not need to apply. This important support helps ensure children have access to the food they need all year long.
