New York Families Miss Out on Millions in Summer Food Benefits: A staggering $62 million in summer food assistance went unclaimed by New York families last year, leaving many struggling households without vital support. The program, which provides up to $120 per child for summer meals, aims to help low-income families during the school break when access to free or reduced-price meals is limited. With millions of dollars in benefits left uncollected, families who may be eligible are being urged to apply before the next round of funding. Could you be missing out on crucial support for your family?
