This summer the state of Indiana is introducing SUN Bucks, a new benefits program that provides eligible families with school-aged children $120.00 to buy groceries when school is out. Most eligible families will get these benefits automatically, in the form of a card sent to their mailing address on file with the school, but parents who haven't already qualified can apply. If your student is already receiving free or reduced priced meals at school, please do not apply. You have already qualified. The last day to apply for benefits is August 16th, 2024, and benefits expire 122 days after the card is issued. Households will receive 1 card per child.
