The TCAPS Sunshine Bus
June 22, 2024
The wheels on the bus go round and round for the Sunshine Bus, part of the Student Support Network offerings from Traverse City Area Public Schools. From June 12 to August 31—with a break during the week of July 4—the Sunshine Bus travels Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays to eight locations around Traverse City to offer free food and basic needs, like personal hygiene products, for kids 18 and under. The Sunshine Bus pairs up with the Father Fred Foundation to source and pack the food, which is intended to be healthy and kid-friendly, with no prep or cooking required. The summer program was developed in 2023 to connect with the over 40 percent of area families who qualify for free and reduced meals during the school year.
