Feed Our Heroes
Veterans and active-duty military families make significant sacrifices. Access to nutritious food shouldn’t be one of them. Feed Our Heroes supports a network of partners that serve the military community to ensure they have the food they need.
Feed Our Heroes

Many veterans, active-duty service members, and military families struggle with the high cost of living here in San Diego. They already make so many sacrifices for us. Access to nutritious food shouldn’t be one of them.
In partnership with local nonprofits serving veterans and military members, Feeding San Diego seeks to serve and support members of our military and veterans when they face hard times. We work with local nonprofits serving veterans and military members to meet this need. Through Feed Our Heroes, we provide food to partner agencies, schools, and mobile pantries.

To come here helps a lot. It shows that people care and that there are people that understand that it’s not always so easy for active-duty military.
“Serving in the military, you get to meet people that you wouldn’t normally meet, like outside the Marine Corps. You meet people from all over. Different experiences, different lifestyles. But even receiving Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) and everything like that, the cost out here, in my eyes, is really expensive. A gallon of milk is way more than I’ve seen anywhere else. With working here on base, for my job, I’m required to bring my food to work. You have to prepare all that beforehand. Even buying groceries to do that, it’s a lot of money. I just had a baby, and it’s been ok. It would be a lot worse if I didn’t have a lot of people at work that cared about me. It helps out. I don’t have any family here, but my workspace is really family-oriented. A lot of them have kids, so they know how hard it is. To come here helps a lot. It shows that people care and that there are people that understand that it’s not always so easy for active-duty military. When you calculate it all, and you see how much you’re actually getting paid, it’s not that much. What I got today helps out tremendously. Thank you, it’s great that there are people out there that donate.”
