There is a new food assistance program in North Carolina for the summer!

SUN Bucks provides 120.00 in food assistance for eligible children over the summer. The funds can be used to buy nutritious foods at grocery stores, farmers markets, and even online!

Some children automatically qualify based on benefit program participation, but that does not exclude other students from receiving SUN Bucks. To see if your student qualifies, visit: www.ncdhhs.gov/sunbucks

In addition to these benefits, summer meals are also available for children. To find the closest participating location to you, text FOOD or COMIDA to 304-304 or visit www.summermeals4nckids.org .
