Due South co-host Leoneda Inge gets a look at a new federal program that will make getting food during the summer easier for children on free and reduced-price lunch.
It’s called ‘Sun Bucks’ or Summer EBT. Families that qualify will receive $40 per month, per child, this summer, paid out in a lump sum.
Most qualifying families are automatically enrolled, and benefits have already begun rolling out.
