Let’s unite to meet the need.

Get involved at DMARC by donating funds or food, volunteering your time, hosting or supporting an even, or exploring the various other opportunities available to help your community and neighbors in need.


Volunteer

Whether you’re sorting food donations, assisting visitors at our mobile food pantry, or helping with food deliveries or donation pickups, there are so many ways to make a difference.

Make a Donation

Supporting DMARC through a cash or in-kind contribution are both great ways to help your community and neighbors in need. Whatever your contribution, DMARC will use it effectively and efficiently right here in your community.

Host a Drive

Hosting a food and fund drive is a fun, easy, and effective way to get your congregation, workplace or group engaged with DMARC – we also offer a virtual drive option!

The Dana Company was named 2024's top fundraiser for the Iowa vs. Iowa State competitive food drive!

Other Ways to Give

DMARC works in partnership with many organizations, businesses, and individuals to secure funding and leverage in-kind donations and services to ensure that all possible resources are made available to help families in need.

There are many ways to give outside of signing a check! Whether it’s through donor advised funds, Endow Iowa, gifts of stock and security, or one of another of our various options, your contribution to DMARC can help us continue to meet the need.

    Is your vehicle costing more than it’s worth? Save some time and money on expensive repairs and consider donating your car, truck, motorcycle, RV, or boat to DMARC! We partner with CARS – Charitable Adult Rides & Services, a nonprofit organization, to make the process easy!

    Planned Giving is a wonderful way for you to leave a lasting legacy in Des Moines, and a planned gift to DMARC Just One Society will help us continue to fulfill our mission of meeting our community’s needs for years to come.


    Special Events

    Join us for one of our upcoming fundraising events, food drives, meetings, or other special events. Your participation, volunteering, and gifts help us grow our impact!
