Together we can support our VETERANS
Help us, help them
Help us, help them
We are a committed group of veteran and civilian volunteers always looking to form more Volunteer opportunities for the Veterans Center. If you would like to volunteer your time and talents, please email us at bedfordtwpvets@gmail.com stop in or give us a call at (734) 242-7032. We greatly appreciate the help.
The Bedford Veteran Center is a local non-profit outreach organization established in 2017 by a veteran and is committed to being there for our local Veterans whenever and wherever they need. We are there for them when there is trouble and when there is joy offering a helping hand when all else seems hopeless. When Americans forget, we are here to bring vets to the rightful and deserved respect that they have earned.
Our mission is to support, communicate with, and encourage Veterans of all Military Branches living in Bedford Township and greater Monroe County.
WE actively create solutions that solve the problems our Veterans face. Our services include private appointments with Veteran Service Officers to determine benefits/claims, on demand food pantry & monthly food distribution to over 35 families, free transportation to medical appointments to ANN Arbor & Toledo VA, support groups, and Veteran court representation. We have strong relationships with our community organizations to help distribute food and attend outreach events as well as organize a golf outing, 5k/1 mile run-walk event, distribution of flags to name a few.
Monthly food distributions occur on Thursdays at the end of each month.
