In recognition of their service and sacrifice, Volusia County's Veterans Services Division will distribute 90 boxes of food to veteran families in need. Volusia Basket Brigade, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping families during the holidays, donated the boxes, each of which contains enough food to feed a family of six for a holiday meal.

Veterans can pick up a food box on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. Proof of military service is required. Distribution begins at 9 a.m. Monday, Dec. 8, at these Veterans Services offices:

  • 110 W. Rich Ave., DeLand
  • 1845 Holsonback Drive, Daytona Beach
  • 717 W. Canal St., New Smyrna Beach
  • 2150 Eustace Ave., Deltona

 "Our veterans have given so much to protect our freedom, and it's an honor to support them and their families during the holiday season," Veterans Services Director Scott Olson said. "We're grateful to the Volusia Basket Brigade for their generosity and commitment to helping those who have served our nation."

Volusia County Veterans Services assists former and current members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their dependents with preparing claims for benefits. For more information about this food distribution or other services, call 386-740-5102 or visit www.volusia.org/veterans.
