BIG NEWS. BIGGER IMPACT.

The Massachusetts Veterans Alliance Foundation is kicking off a bold new initiative—and we need you in the fight.

FEEDING VETERANS CAMPAIGN LAUNCHES MAY 15th!

It’s simple: we’re challenging our community to step up and stock the shelves for local veterans.

Starting May 15th, teams of families, friends, or coworkers will collect as many non-expired, shelf-stable, non-perishable items as they can over 30 days.

Theme: SUMMER COOKOUT.

Think baked beans, mac & cheese, tuna, canned fruit, condiments—classic BBQ staples.

Top 3 teams win.

Prizes announced at the May 15 kickoff.

This is about more than food. It’s about showing up for those who’ve served—and reminding them they’re not forgotten.

12–2 PM | American Legion Post 188 | 20 Main St, Sandwich, MA
