VFW FOOD BANK PROGRAM

The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW) is a nonprofit veteran service organization comprised of eligible veterans and military service members from the active, guard, and reserve forces.

Here, locally, they hold regular meetings on the 2nd Thursday of the month. Their Post is very active and has been honored as Leading Post in the State of Tennessee for Community Service, and the plans show no indication of slowing down.

They serve the community in many ways; and one of those is the Food Bank on weekends for veteran families. This is where we will focus our partnership on, in providing resources for the food bank throughout the year. If you are a veteran in need, please reach out to them here for resource information.

Say hello to Brenda! Brenda has been visiting shut ins at senior care facilities for double digit years monthly. She plays piano and sings along with them, as well as provides them with needed essentials, treats and gifts for special holidays. Often, she pays for it all herself. We are now partnering with Brenda to help her in her own passion/vision to help those who are forgotten so often. She wants to encourage them that they are important. We are going to help her. This is a shot from last Christmas's distribution.

GRANTING WISHES, ONE HERO AT A TIME

WISH for OUR HEROES (W4OH) is a national 501(c)(3), dedicated to assisting the men and women of the United States active-duty military, and in some cases, Veterans. W4OH started with the goal of providing one wish for every deserving military member. There are no requirements – military members simply had to be on active-duty at the time the wish is submitted. The priority is to always grant basic needs or emergencies first – anything from putting food on the table to assisting with car repairs, home repairs, baby supplies, clothing, etc. When basic needs are met, they also enjoys providing fun things like sending the troops to athletic events, sending them on vacation to get re-acquainted after deployments, meeting celebrities and more. You can view a sampling of some of the wishes WISH for OUR HEROES has granted by viewing their news pages online.
