In this publication, we honor veterans; those who have not only heroically served our country, but also continue to serve others through their volunteer work at the Falmouth Service Center and Hand in hand Thrift Shop.

Each month, dedicated FSC volunteers pack pallets of food, clothing and other supplies to set up a Fresh Market at Joint Base Cape Cod. All individuals with Base access, including active duty members of the military, veterans and civilian workers are invited to visit Fresh Market to pick up fresh produce, dairy, frozen meats, canned goods, diapers, clothes and more. Many of our volunteers are veterans that have trained or served alongside those who visit. The atmosphere is filled with respect, as hand-shakes, hugs and laughs are shared.

Our many husband and wife volunteer teams recognize the challenges our active-duty members face. They remember what it was like for themselves, and realize that many veterans struggle to make ends meet. Their service training comes in handy in keeping operations running smoothly. Vets truly know the importance of team work! The Board and staff are grateful for all of our dedicated volunteers, who served our country and continue to serve their local community.
