The Cadillac Veterans Serving Veterans (VSV) food bank serves about 40-50 people every two weeks, and this summer, they’ll be getting fresh fruits and vegetables thanks to the help from community partners.
Students from the Wexford Missaukee Career Technical Center were out on May 13 at the Cadillac YMCA community garden prepping three plots of land that will be used to grow fruits and vegetables for the VSV food bank.
This will be a summer long project, called Veterans Feeding Veterans, that anyone in the community can get involved with.
“It means a lot,” said 11th grader Abigail Geeting. “All of us have a connection one way or another to a veteran, and they did so much for our country. It’s just nice to be able to give it back.”

The Cadillac Veterans Serving Veterans organization received a generous donation to continue their community park development.
The Rotary Club of Cadillac dedicated their 2021 auction earnings to the veterans’ organization so they could build the next step of the park project.
The Rotary Club usually holds an annual auction, but because of the COVID-19 pandemic, they had to shift to a virtual auction.
They donated over $23,000 to Veterans Serving Veterans on Tuesday.
“It means a lot,” said Randy Hill, President of the Rotary Club of Cadillac. “This group is such a huge component of our community they do great things, not only for the veterans who have served but also just community at large.”
