As of June 1, 2024, the state of Indiana will be participating in a new summer program called Sun Bucks. The purpose of Sun Bucks is to provide families with $120 per qualified student to assist in feeding them over the summer months when children do not have access to school meals. Any child that has been approved for Free or Reduced meals is automatically approved and a card will be sent to the address on file with the school starting June 1, 2024. Any families that believe they would qualify, but have not been approved for free or reduced meals, are welcome to apply online at Indianasunbucks.com.
If your student(s) have been approved for Free or Reduced meals and you would like to decline the assistance you can do so at DOE SUN Bucks (S-EBT) - Jira Service Management (atlassian.net)
