SANDWICH – The Massachusetts Military Support Foundation continues to provide support to the local military community through their Food4Vets program during the coronavirus outbreak.
The program will allow for active duty military members as well as military families to pick up cases containing two weeks of food.
Former Yarmouth Deputy Police Chief Steven Xiarhos and other volunteers with Big Nick’s Ride have supported the cause.
“It’s an amazing program, it’s a bunch of great volunteers from all over Cape Cod and now Massachusetts,” said Xiarhos.
Food4Vets has already donated over 1,000,000 meals.
Attendees are asked to stay inside their vehicles and allow volunteers to load their car, to promote social distancing.
Xiarhos said the biggest need for the program is fuel for deliveries and donations that can be made at the foundations website. Attendees also must register at the foundation’s website.
