SUN Bucks program offers help to DMV families with groceries this summer
ARLINGTON, Va. (7News) — Families looking for extra help with groceries this summer could qualify for a new program called SUN Bucks, which provides $120 for each child. “We think of summer as a fun time no school, play all day, but in reality for a lot of families, school breakfast and lunch may be the most nutritious meals there they can afford,” said Joe Liu, the Director of Advocacy and Public Policy at Capital Area Food Bank. “When the schools are closed, families don't have that extra support, and so they have to buy more groceries. They've cost them a lot more, and we know how much inflation has affected the price of food every time we go to the store. And so this extra $120 benefit. It helps close the gap so that families can make sure their kids have healthy food all year long.”
