SUN Bucks Grocery Benefit Now Available

The information collected on meal applications for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) can qualify students for SUN Bucks, a program that provides $120 in grocery benefits per eligible school-age child when school is out for summer.  For students who attend schools that don’t collect meal applications, families can fill out a SUN Bucks application to see if their child is eligible for this grocery buying benefit.  The deadline to apply is August 5, 2025.
