More than 30 thank-you cards. More than 30 reminders of why we do this. 🇺🇸

These cards came from military families at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms following our most recent Feeding Military Families Food Drive. They are addressed to the Satellite Rotary Club of Military Family Support, but the thanks truly belong to everyone who made the drive possible.

To every Rotarian, Mason, church and service organization, business owner, community group, donor, volunteer, family, and young person who collected food, gave financially, packed boxes, loaded pallets, drove trucks, or simply helped spread the word—these thank-you cards are for you.

Our August drive collected more than eight tons of food and supplies and helped us reach the “Double Nickel”—more than 55 tons since 2022. But these handwritten cards remind us that behind every pound is a military family.

Thank you, Twentynine Palms, for taking the time to say thank you. And to everyone who helped make this possible: read these cards and know that your generosity reached exactly where it was intended to go. 🇺🇸

Deep in the heart of California’s Mojave Desert, military families at Fort Irwin are a long way from almost everything—but they are not forgotten. 🇺🇸

Following our August food drive, part of the more than eight tons of food and supplies collected made the journey to Fort Irwin, where soldiers helped unload a truckload destined for military families on the installation.

That same drive pushed Feeding Military Families past an incredible milestone: the Double Nickel—more than 55 tons of food and supplies collected since 2022.

But the next family still needs us, and the next food drive will be here before we know it.

Donate. Volunteer. Get your organization involved. Help us fill the next truck.

🇺🇸 We reached the Double Nickel — 55 tons!

With the tremendous response to our August 15 food drive, Feeding Military Families has now collected and distributed more than 110,000 pounds of food and essential supplies since this effort began in 2022.

But 55 tons isn’t really a story about weight. It’s a story about people—Rotarians, Masons, church ministries, service organizations, local businesses, community groups, young people, and entire families working side by side to support military families throughout Southern California.

No single organization reached the Double Nickel. A community did.

I’ve written about the people, partnerships, and thousands of individual acts of service that made this milestone possible.

An early delivery—and two young volunteers already making a difference!

As we prepare for tomorrow’s Feeding Military Families food drive, we were grateful to receive an early delivery of donated food supplies from the Hacienda Heights Women’s Club.

And they brought some extra helping hands! Two young assistants, just 8 and 10 years old, pitched in to help unload the trailer and get the donations ready for distribution.

These supplies will soon be headed to military families connected to Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Camp Pendleton, and Fort Irwin.

Tomorrow’s food drive is about more than collecting food. It’s about communities coming together—across organizations and across generations—to support the men and women who serve our country and the families who serve alongside them.

A big thank you to the Hacienda Heights Women’s Club—and especially our two youngest volunteers—for getting us off to a great start! 🇺🇸❤️
