We are thrilled to share that VEAP has been named Bronze Winner in the Minnesota’s Best Readers’ Choice Awards for Best Place to Volunteer! 🥉
This recognition is a direct reflection of the dedication, compassion, and generosity of our incredible volunteer community. Every hour you give—whether it’s stocking shelves in the pantry, delivering food to neighbors, assisting with participant intake, or supporting special events—helps make VEAP a welcoming, dignified place for all who walk through our doors.
In 2024 alone, over 1,100 volunteers contributed nearly 70,000 hours of service to VEAP. That’s the equivalent of 33 full-time staff members—an extraordinary gift of time and talent that makes a lasting difference in the lives of thousands of individuals and families.
From all of us at VEAP: thank you for helping us earn this honor and for making VEAP such a special place to serve. Your dedication truly powers our mission to create pathways to stronger, more hopeful communities.
