FRAMINGHAM, MA – Military Friends Foundation recently received a generous $3,000 donation from Alltown Fresh following the company’s annual Military Appreciation Month campaign.
Throughout May, customers at Alltown Fresh locations across Massachusetts were invited to support local veterans and military families by purchasing featured tacos, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting Military Friends Foundation. The 2026 initiative marked the fourth year that Alltown Fresh has supported veterans organizations through its Military Appreciation Month campaign.
Military Friends Foundation representatives joined members of the Alltown Fresh and Global Partners teams at the company’s Framingham location this week to accept the donation and celebrate the continued partnership. Alltown Fresh partnered with Military Friends Foundation to support the annual MA Military Appreciation Day luncheon in May at the State House.
Tough Ruck athletes Jeffrey Paolino and Andrew Staruk helped represent the spirit of Military Friends Foundation throughout the campaign. Earlier this year, Jeffrey and Andrew appeared in a special Dining Playbook segment filmed at Alltown Fresh in Hudson, helping share how the campaign supports Massachusetts service members, veterans, military families and Families of the Fallen.
“We are incredibly grateful to Alltown Fresh and everyone who supported this campaign,” said Sarah Sweeney, executive director of Military Friends Foundation. “This donation will help us continue providing direct assistance and critical support to Massachusetts military families when they need it most. Jeffrey and Andrew did an outstanding job representing our mission and reminding the community why it is so important to honor those who serve and support the families who stand beside them.”
Partnerships with community minded organizations such as Alltown Fresh help Military Friends Foundation answer the call when local military families experience hardship, loss or an unexpected financial crisis.
Thank you to Alltown Fresh, Global Partners, Jeffrey, Andrew and every customer who participated during Military Appreciation Month. Together, you are helping Military Friends Foundation assist warriors, empower military families and honor our fallen military members and first responders.
