A free holiday ham will be included in the monthly food distribution for local veterans and military families by Soldiers’ Angels at their Dec. 8 food distribution.

Soldiers’ Angels Expansion
Soldiers’ Angels expanded their monthly food distribution event to Dallas in September, in order to better serve the military-connected community. According to the U.S. Department of Affairs, more than 100,000 Veterans live in Dallas County. This makes the organization’s food distribution a pivotal event for the densely military-connected population.
