We wanted to share a resource that we came across and it worked for one of our local veterans!

The veteran applied through the Disabled Veterans National Foundation (DVNF) Veteran Food Assistance Program and, after being approved, was able to order approximately $300 worth of groceries online, which were delivered directly to their home through Kroger.

After speaking with the program director, we learned a few helpful tips:

Funding is limited each month and is often exhausted by around the 10th of the month.

They recommend applying as close to the 1st of the month as possible.

Veterans may receive assistance once every 9 months, if eligible.

If you or a veteran you know could use a little extra help with groceries, this may be a great resource to explore.

Apply here:

As always, if you have questions or need assistance finding available resources, don't hesitate to contact the Meigs County Veterans Service Office. We're here to help!

Please consider sharing this post so more veterans can learn about this opportunity. 🇺🇸❤️

The Veterans Food Assistance Program (VFAP) is designed to provide a one-time grant of essential food and household support to veterans and their families, ensuring no veteran goes hungry.
