    U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) officials will visit Helena on Friday to recognize Montana's commitment to feeding kids during the summer months.

    They will also visit the Lewis and Clark Library from 11:50 AM to 12:20 PM.

    Montana is one of 30 states participating in the USDA's recently announced SUN Programs to improve nutrition security during summer.

    According to the USDA, this includes SUN Bucks, a Summer Electronics Benefits Transfer program that gives "a grocery benefit of 120 dollars per eligible school-aged child."
