This Veterans Day, your local food bank is sending a big thank you to all veterans who served our country! We know hunger impacts veterans every single day. In fact, 1 in 9 working-age veterans are food insecure nationwide. Because of that, we know how important it is to serve food to those who served our country. We are constantly working to provide much needed food to veterans facing hunger all across West Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. #VeteransDay

We gather and distribute food to relieve hunger and increase food security in West Michigan and the Upper Peninsula.
关于我们
Serving local families in need since 1981, Feeding America West Michigan reclaims millions of meals’ worth of safe, surplus food from various sources. With the help of countless volunteers, the food bank sorts, stores and distributes this food through a network of hundreds of hunger-relief partners to fill neighbors’ plates instead of landfills. The food bank’s service area consists of 40 of Michigan’s 83 counties from the Indiana border north through the Upper Peninsula. For more information, visit FeedWM.org or call 616-784-3250.
