The holiday season is a time to reflect, express gratitude, and give to those in need. Locally, the Des Moines Area Food Bank provides emergency food services.
It takes a village...a very large village...to keep a food bank like this continually supplied with food so that no one in our community goes hungry. Especially this holiday season. The holidays are stressful for almost everyone, but for people who are already struggling to feed their families or themselves, they can be almost unbearable. Let's do what we can to lift up the burdens of our neighbors and make sure they have full plates and full bellies.
The Food Bank is open to patrons Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, 9-11:45am; and every third Tuesday 6-8pm. In addition to providing food, the Des Moines Area Food Bank offers cooking classes the last Tuesday of each month 10am-12pm.
Donate food goods or financial assistance to the Des Moines Area Food Bank this holiday season! Any amount helps and you can make it a one-time gift or regular donation.
If you know of other local charities you would like highlighted on our blog, please let us know!
