SUN programs provide help with Summer Meals

SUN Meals

Through SUN Meals, kids of all ages can eat meals and snacks during the summer at no cost. Meals will be provided at schools, parks, and other neighborhood locations. SUN Meals may have a different name where you live, but the benefit is the same: meals for kids and teens, and opportunities to participate in fun activities.

Every child aged 18 and under can enjoy SUN Meals, some rural communities now offer SUN Meals To-Go, and eligible school-aged children can also receive SUN Bucks.
