Story

Make a meaningful impact in your community by hosting a food and funds drive to support the DMARC Food Pantry Network! Hunger affects more people than we often realize. Last year, over 75,000 unique individuals living in the Greater Des Moines Metro relied on one of our pantries during their times of need.

When you host a drive, you're doing more than collecting food or funds—you’re providing essential resources to neighbors facing food insecurity. Thanks to DMARC's bulk buying power, every dollar donated stretches 2-6 times further, feeding even more individuals and families struggling to make ends meet.

Your generosity goes beyond filling empty plates—it restores hope, dignity, and the assurance that someone cares. Join us in the fight against hunger and become a beacon of kindness in the lives of those who need it most. Together, we can build a stronger, more compassionate community!
