"Our mission is to bridge the gap between the civilian community and military families, ensuring that veterans and active-duty service members feel supported, appreciated, and connected here at home."

VFC hosts an annual Haunted House as one of our many fundraisers. Held at The Gardeners' Spot

The Distribution Shed

Donated by the Montachusett Area Rotary Club – 2024

In 2024, the Montachusett Area Rotary Club generously donated a permanent shed to Veteran Family Connections.

This structure serves as a central distribution point and focal gathering space for our outreach efforts. It allows us to organize, distribute, and promote support for veterans, active-duty military members, and their families in a consistent, visible way.

More than a building, the shed represents:

• A long-term commitment from Rotary to our mission

• A physical symbol of community partnership

• A dedicated space to honor and support those who served

The Distribution Shed strengthens our ability to serve year-round — from seasonal programs to ongoing support initiatives — and stands as a reminder that our community stands behind its veterans.

Annual Christmas Tree Arrival & Setup Day

A Community Volunteer Tradition

Each year, when the Christmas trees arrive, our holiday season officially begins.

Before any event takes place, a dedicated group of volunteers comes together to unload trees, prepare the grounds, organize event spaces, and help transform the property into a welcoming holiday setting for the entire community.

This annual setup day is powered by the generosity and energy of:

• ABA Life Skills

• Leominster High School Football Team

• Local businesses

• Community members

• Rotary members

• And many other volunteers

Their hands-on support lays the foundation for every holiday activity that follows.

This day reflects what Veteran Family Connections stands for — not just serving military families, but uniting the broader community in service together.

It is a powerful example of civilians, students, service organizations, and businesses working side by side to support veterans and military families.
