Nearly 100 households in Winton Hills are part of a year-long pilot program that will provide free grocery delivery and $100 each month.
The city of Cincinnati is funding the program in partnership with Kroger to address food insecurity, although those taking part in the program can use the money they receive to buy more than just food.
