We Honor Heroes

We are committed to supporting veterans’ service organizations through a variety of programs such as Honor Flights, annual Veterans Day breakfasts, Hy-Vee Round Up, and participation in programs such as the U.S. Department of Defense’s Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve. These programs align with our long-standing commitment to serve as a community partner and our mission to make lives easier, healthier and happier.

Hy-Vee Veterans Day Breakfast

Many Hy-Vee stores celebrate Veterans Day each year by offering a free breakfast buffet to all veterans and active-duty military members as a way of thanking veterans and military members for their service. Hy-Vee typically serves more than 90,000 veterans and their guests each year at their in-store dining facilities or restaurants. Many stores offer planned programs, displays, entertainment or other activities to complement the breakfast event.
