DMARC Food Drive
DMARC operates nine area food pantries to help meet the short-term needs of hungry people in the Des Moines area. DMARC works to help persons to be free from hunger by providing help for short-term emergencies and offering information and referral to other available agencies.

At Reggie's Sleepout on October 24th, there will be red barrels distributed at Drake Stadium to collect nonperishable canned food items starting at 3 p.m. We encourage the community to bring canned food items to donate as part of your participation in the fourth annual Reggie's Sleepout. November 15-21 is National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness week.
