Soldiers' Angels Expands Monthly Food Distribution to Cincinnati
In honor of National Nutrition Month, we are excited to share that we have expanded our Military and Veteran Food Distribution (MVFD) program to Cincinnati. As the largest provider of food exclusively to Veterans in the country, Soldiers’ Angels provided food assistance to more than 49,000 Service Members and Veterans in 2024, and we are planning to increase that support by 50% in 2025 to fight food insecurity.
Soldiers’ Angels has taken over the Cincinnati food distribution program from the VA Medical Center, which has been hosting events since 2022. This transition will enhance the quality of food provided, improve distribution logistics, and raise awareness about food insecurity within the Military-connected community.
The Soldiers’ Angels MVFD in Cincinnati will take place on the fourth Friday of every month, providing 175 Veteran and Military families with free groceries.
Next Event: Friday, March 28, 2025
Location: Cincinnati VA Medical Center – 3200 Vine St, Cincinnati, OH 45220
We need more volunteers to support this event! If you or someone you know lives in or near Cincinnati, please help us spread the word—both to those in need of assistance and those who want to give back. Your support will help us grow this event and serve even more Military and Veteran families!
