Hope Ministries will deliver thousands of meals to people in need on Thanksgiving Day—and they’re asking for the help of volunteers. Positions include on-site meal delivery as well as driver teams who will deliver meals around Des Moines.

If enough people volunteer to help assemble and deliver, Hope Ministries will be able to provide 3,500 free Thanksgiving meals. On-site volunteers must be at least 13 years of age. Organizers say for families with younger children, serving as a meal delivery driver team is a great option. For more information on Thanksgiving volunteer opportunities, go to this website.


Iowa Stops Hunger is a Business Publications Corporation initiative to bring awareness and action to food insecurity in Iowa.
