Originally established in 2018 as the Uniting to Combat Hunger program, the VFW and our friends at Humana® created Uniting for Veterans to actively address food insecurity across America with an emphasis on the military community. The program expanded in 2024 to include a veteran homelessness component to improve quality of life for America's heroes and their families.
As part of the Uniting for Veterans program, our VFW Post is collecting food donations and raising monetary donations to support the local food pantries of The United Parish in Upton, St. Gabriel the Archangel Parish, and The Upton Community Center. In addition, we will support veterans and their families through the food pantry and outreach programs of Veterans, Inc. in Worcester, MA.
In support of the campaign, the VFW Foundation offers a Uniting for Veterans grant through which a matching grant of up to $1,500 is available to VFW Posts and Auxiliaries for monetary, food or item donations to local food banks, pantries or homeless relief organizations in their communities.
It would be greatly appreciated if you could make a food donation or monetary donation to help us achieve our mission.
