Automatic Enrollment for Eligible Families

According to TheSuns, The government has started a new program to help families buy food for their kids during the summer. The program is called Sun Bucks. It gives an extra $120 to families with school-aged children to help with grocery bills.

Families who already get food stamps or have kids who get free or reduced-price lunches at school are automatically signed up for Sun Bucks. But families who don’t get these benefits can still apply. To apply, families need to give some basic information like their child’s name, school, and address, and tell how much money they make.
