PROTEIN FOOD DRIVE
As summer food programs end by August 5, children are left without access to nutritious, high-quality meals in the weeks leading up to the start of the school year.
Over 8,000 food insecure central Iowa children are ineligible for nutrition assistance programs.
United Way of Central Iowa is uniting with central Iowa businesses and faith-based groups to provide protein rich food items to food insecure families in Polk, Dallas, and Warren counties.
Below, you will find downloadable marketing materials to help you kickstart a successful food drive. Let's come together to gather essential protein items for our neighbors.
