Backing up the Front with Food

Have you ever wondered where your next meal will come from or how you're going to buy groceries when your budget is strained to the max. I think we've all been there...at least I have. For our military families, times are often tough and the toughest it seems when service members are deployed. You can make a difference by attending the Farm Bureau of VA Open House on Friday, May 7th at 1215R George Washington Highway, Yorktown, VA and donating a non-perishable food item for the Food Pantry. These items are used to provide emergency food assistance to military families "caught in that crunch" between pay periods where just a little help is needed. If you're not in our area but would like to help, please visit www.operationhomefront.net/hamptonroads and make a donation online. A recurring donation of $10 per month supports the cost of one emergency food voucher for a military family in crisis. When you set your next meal on your table at home think about those who may not be able to do the same! It happens...help us help them by Backing Up the Front.
