What an amazing group of people performing a very needed mission. The veterans who served our…read morecountry often struggle with maintaining civilian life and occasionally end up on the streets. The reasons for this are varied but HVAF does a great job helping to address these various situations. Sometimes coming in off the street isn't something the veteran is interested in or prepared for so HVAF even helps to meet the needs that they can for those who remain outside. They are always looking for volunteer help. It could be sorting and stacking donations for their food pantry or their clothing pantry. It could be helping maintain the several residences they have around the city. Or it could be in other ways. Stop by and introduce yourself or give them a call to find out more.

I call that a perfect trifecta. All the folks here are just really friendly and upbeat. I have never encountered a rude employee/volunteer here. Got leftovers from a company catering, or bought too much groceries, or run a business that may generate food waste? Bring what you cannot use to Second Helpings. No donation is too small or too big. Rest assured no food goes to waste. What they cannot use, they will pass on to other organizations. They do have guest speakers available if you want to do a food drive for them or inspire others. I try to attend their events like the Souper Bowl... Be prepared, this event is a mad house, but so much fun... Soup stations all around the building, try one, try all and then vote for your favorite. Some soups are also available for purchase. Non-alcoholic drinks are usually provided. So next time you don't know what to do with food, your time or money, consider donating or volunteering for this organization. Well worth it.
