Let’s come together to support Service Members and Veterans with one of the most basic human needs: food.
Soldiers’ Angels hosts monthly Military and Veteran Food Distributions for low-income active duty Service Members, Guardsmen, Reservists, and Veterans of all generations in seven cities across the country. The events provide much-needed food assistance to thousands of Military-connected individuals and their families.
But we can’t carry out these events without volunteers. Every month, in each of the seven cities, volunteers of all ages and abilities work to ensure our Nation’s heroes do not go hungry. Will you join us in carrying out this mission?

What to expect if you volunteer at a veteran food distribution.
Soldiers’ Angels Military and Veteran Food Distributions are designed to be drive-through style events to make it as easy as possible for the attending Service Members and Veterans. When volunteers arrive, they will help unload grocery items from the delivery trucks and then sort and pack the items into bags and/or boxes.
Service Members and Veterans will drive through during their registered time slot and volunteers will load the groceries into their cars.
This volunteer opportunity requires standing, lifting, and bending. Please be sure to dress appropriately for the weather. These events are held outside, regardless of the weather.
What to expect if you volunteer at a Food Pantry.
Soldiers’ Angels food pantries designed to allow service members and veterans to “shop” making food choices based on their family size. Volunteers help stock the shelves of the pantry with food as well as help guide clients through the shopping process, allowing them to select the food that is best for their dietary needs and likes.
