☀️ SUN Bucks are back in Ohio! 🍎🥪
The Ohio Summer EBT Program (SUN Bucks) helps eligible families purchase groceries during the summer months when school meals are unavailable. Eligible children can receive a one-time benefit of $120 to help keep them healthy, active, and nourished all summer long.
Many families will be automatically enrolled and do not need to apply:
✅ If your child currently receives SNAP, benefits will be added to your existing Ohio Direction Card.
✅ If your child receives Ohio Works First (OWF) but not SNAP, they will automatically receive benefits on a separate card mailed to your home.
✅ If your child received Summer EBT last year and qualifies again this year, benefits will be loaded onto the same card.
✅ If your child does not participate in SNAP, OWF, or another qualifying program, you may need to submit an application.
The Ohio Association of Foodbanks is proud to partner with the Children's Hunger Alliance and Ohio Lt. Governor Jim Tressel to help raise awareness about this important program.

Together, we can help ensure children have access to nutritious food all summer long. 💚
