It not only delivers water and nutrients from the soil to the leaves but also carries the products of photosynthesis (glucose and other carbohydrates) and other plant nutrients (protein and fats or oil) back to the stems and trunk to keep them alive. It's a 2-way transport system. And as MindClear says they support the leaf cells to give the leaf its structure.

There are two main plant veins: the xylem and the phloem. The xylem transports water through the plant, and the phloem transports sugars. Besides transportation, both structures also provide support for the plant. Veins in monocots are parallel on the margins of the leaf while veins in dicots radiate from the midrib of the leaf. C.

It delivers the water/other nutrients to all the leaf cells. It functions like an artery would function for a human.
