National Food Truck Program
The Coalition has proudly partnered with the national non-profit Feed the Children for the past 4 years. Hosting more than 23 food truck events across the country. Together we were able to feed over 9,200 veterans and active duty military families in need. Hundreds of supporters and volunteers in each community have continued to rally around the mission and we have received extra help from companies like BB&T, Home Depot and Amazon Fresh. In addition to the food and hygiene boxes we were also able to distribute thousands of children’s books and a special edition James Patterson books to adults.
