Delran – State Senator Troy Singleton will once again team up with Feeding Our Heroes to host a Burlington County Veterans Appreciation Dinner, bringing together local veterans, their families, and support organizations for an evening of recognition and resources. The dinner will take place on Wednesday, October 22nd from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Delran VFW Post 3020, 1125 S. Fairview Street.

The dinner will provide veterans with more than just a complimentary meal. The event serves as a resource fair, connecting attendees with essential services and support networks. Veterans will also have the opportunity to receive personalized assistance with state agencies and community organizations. 

“Our veterans have given so much in service to our nation, and it’s our responsibility as a community to ensure they receive the support and recognition they’ve earned,” said Senator Singleton. “This dinner represents more than appreciation—it’s about creating meaningful connections between our heroes and the resources that can truly make a difference in their daily lives. Every veteran who walks through those doors should leave knowing they have a community that stands behind them.” 

The Veterans Appreciation Dinner will provide a welcoming environment where veterans can access vital services while enjoying fellowship. Space is limited and advance registration is required. Veterans and their families can register today at www.troysingleton.com/feedingheroes. For additional information, please contact Nisha Ray at (856) 234-2790 or email [email protected]. 

About Feeding Our Heroes: 

Starting in 2005 with a simple idea of restoring a local food institution, Feeding Our Heroes founder Michael Guinta purchased Bayway Diner. After receiving national recognition by airing on the Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, Bayway Diner expanded into Bayway Catering. Now occupying a corporate cafeteria and serving 900+ workers each day, Bayway Catering realized the opportunity to give back to those who serve us in times of need by starting the NJ food charity, Feeding Our Heroes. Since its inception in 2021, Feeding Our Heroes has fed thousands of veterans using several different programs that have supported first responders through disaster relief. Feeding Our Heroes’ mission is to celebrate our local heroes, salute our military personnel and veterans and improve awareness around food insecurity in the community.
