2016 Jeepers for Vets - Veterans' Food Bank Food Drive
« on: November 02, 2016, 10:12:52 PM »
Once again, Jeepers for Vets will be hosting a year-end food drive for the Calgary Veterans' Food Bank.

Last year's event was a great success with over 30 Jeeps participating and piles and piles of donations.

This year especially, the Veterans' Food Bank is struggling... Many military personnel find employment in the oil patch after they leave the service, and as everyone is aware, our energy industry has taken a huge beating the past couple of years. Corporate donations are down and we are seeing a growing number of younger veterans and their families that are dependent on the services and support the Veterans’ Food Bank provides.

For details on this year’s event, please visit either the Facebook page or the website:

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported this event in the past and we hope you see you (and your Jeep buddies) again this year!

Steve
