Whats New With MSF?

Military Support Foundation was honored to host our annual park cleanup at Heroes Park in celebration of Earth Day, bringing together volunteers, families, and supporters for a day of giving back to the community. With the incredible support of Walmart and KeHE Distributors, we were able to make a real impact, cleaning up the park and creating a better space for everyone to enjoy. It was an amazing day filled with teamwork, purpose, and pride, showing what can happen when a community comes together to take care of something bigger than themselves.

MSF is beyond proud to have given away over 7,500 MacBooks to service members and their families, helping ease the transition into civilian life and open new doors of opportunity. This impact was only made possible through the incredible support of Walmart, whose generosity helped turn this vision into reality. For many families, a reliable computer can mean the difference between standing still and moving forward. These MacBooks have helped veterans apply for jobs, continue their education, build new skills, and support their children in school. It is more than just technology. It is a pathway to stability, growth, and a stronger future.

We were honored to support not only our service members, but also the first responders and specialized teams who stand ready every day. We had the privilege of supporting the men and women of the Western Aviation Tactical Training Site (WATTS) during their drills, bringing an MSF Pantry directly on site to serve those who are not able to make it to us on Sundays. We were able to provide hydration and electrolytes along with fresh food, helping keep them fueled through long and demanding days.

MSF's mission goes beyond supporting our service members. We are proud to stand alongside our first responders as well, making sure they have the fuel they need to keep showing up every day. Through our outreach, we were able to provide Banana Water to help replenish electrolytes and fresh eggs to give them a strong source of protein. It is a simple way to give back, but it goes a long way in supporting the men and women who protect and serve our communities.

The Military Support Foundation had the honor of hosting an Eggstravaganza at Papago Military Reservation, bringing together service members and their families for a day full of fun and connection. There were games, activities, and plenty of smiles as families spent time together and enjoyed a break from the demands of military life. Moments like these matter. They lift morale, bring people closer, and remind our service members and their loved ones that they are supported and appreciated every step of the way.

MSF was honored to serve over 700 new recruits and their families at Papago Military Base. This event provided an opportunity to welcome service members at the very beginning of their military journey and ensure they felt supported alongside their loved ones. The day was filled with connection, gratitude, and community, reinforcing our commitment to standing beside those who serve and the families who support them every step of the way.

We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with The Home Depot, whose generous support made it possible to give away around 150 bicycles to active duty soldiers, their children, and their families. Seeing parents and kids ride away together with smiles on their faces was a powerful reminder of what community partnership can achieve. This collaboration allowed us to create moments of joy, connection, and normalcy for military families, and we are honored to work alongside partners who share our commitment to supporting those who serve.

On our grand opening day, January 11th, we were honored to welcome and serve 178 military families through the MSF pantry. Seeing so many families walk through our doors affirmed the need for this space and the importance of our mission. This incredible first day at our new location reflects the trust our military community places in us and strengthens our commitment to stand beside them with dignity, care, and unwavering support.

We are pleased to announce that the Military Support Foundation pantry has relocated to a new, dedicated facility to better serve our military families and community partners. Our pantry is now operating at 1929 W. Lone Cactus Drive, Suite 2, Phoenix, AZ 85027, providing expanded access, improved layout, and a welcoming environment for those in need of support. This move reflects MSF’s ongoing commitment to enhancing our services and meeting the evolving needs of our community.

This Christmas, Military Support Foundation and Youth For Troops joined together to send over one thousand Christmas care packages overseas to the brave men and women serving through the holidays. Each box was packed with love, gratitude, and thoughtful gifts to bring a little comfort and cheer to those far from home. We are deeply thankful for everyone who helped make this possible and honored to support our service members who sacrifice so much during a season meant for family, warmth, and togetherness.

This Thanksgiving, Military Support Foundation and Bashas came together to create around four hundred fifty Thanksgiving food boxes filled with yams, potatoes, marshmallows, a whole ham, and other festive goodies to bring joy to the families who serve our country. With the help of our amazing volunteers and generous sponsors, we turned a simple giveaway into a day full of smiles, gratitude, and community. We are endlessly thankful for the brave men and women who serve and for the families who stand behind them, and it is our honor to help make their holiday season a little brighter and full of love.

MSF was proud to support the deployment ceremony for the 855th Military Police Company by providing food, drinks, and setup assistance for the event. It was an emotional and powerful day, as families, friends, and fellow service members came together to honor and send off these brave men and women. We are grateful for the opportunity to stand alongside them and show our support as they prepare to serve our country.

MSF had the honor of helping plan and support the retirement celebration of Major General Kerry Muehlenbeck, the Adjutant General for the State of Arizona. We provided food, drinks, and on-site support to help make the day special for a leader who has given so much to those who serve. It was a privilege to be part of this meaningful event and to celebrate a legacy of dedication and service.

As part of Mojave Falcon 25, one of the largest Army Reserve training exercises in recent history MSF, with the help of PepsiCo and Midwest Food Bank, delivered two full semi-trucks packed with drinks and food to Fort Hunter Liggett. More than 9,000 Soldiers from every branch came together for this 16-day joint training mission, focused on live-fire, casualty evacuation, and large-scale logistics. We’re proud to support our nation’s service members as they train to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

The Military Support Foundation sent St. Patrick's Day care packages overseas, filled with festive treats and essential items, to bring a touch of home and uplift the spirits of our service members deployed abroad. This effort is a heartfelt way to show our gratitude for their service and sacrifice.
