SUN Bucks is California’s version of the Summer EBT (Electronic Benefit Transfer) program. It helps ensure that children have access to nutritious food during the summer break. 

Who’s eligible?
Children may qualify for SUN Bucks if they:  

• Are between the ages of 6 and 18 and attending school

• Receive free or reduced-price school meals 

• Are enrolled in CalFresh, CalWORKS, or Medi-Cal 

• Are experiencing homelessness, in foster care, or part of a migrant family 

• Meet household income requirements

How much will I get? 
Eligible families will receive $40 per month for each of the three summer months—June, July, and August—for a total of $120 per child. Benefits will be loaded onto S-EBT cards and mailed directly to your home. (Please make sure your mailing address is current.) 

How do I apply? 

Submit one Universal Benefits Application (UBA) per household: 

• Apply online (preferred) 

• Or pick up a paper form at your child’s school 

This application may also unlock additional services such as internet access or transportation. Submitting it will not affect your immigration status or your child’s ability to receive school meals at no cost. 

Important Deadlines: 

• Apply by May 30 for benefits to arrive on time. 

• Final deadline to apply: August 31, 2025
