DMARC’s Signature fundraising event

Thursday, April 10 at the Krause Gateway Center


DMARC’s Signature fundraising event returns Thursday, April 10 at Krause Gateway Center (1459 Grand Ave). All proceeds from this special evening go to support DMARC and our ongoing mission to support our neighbors’ basic needs in the Des Moines Metro.

Last year’s Spring Greens event raised over $160,000! Thank you to all of our sponsors, volunteers, and supporters for making this year’s event a success.

An emergency level of need

The DMARC Food Pantry Network continues to navigate an unmatched need through its 14 food pantries, a food delivery service, and multiple Mobile Food Pantry locations. To put this in perspective, the Network provides over 4.5 million meals to those in need in the greater Des Moines community every 12 months.

Get Involved

Behind the scenes of an event like Spring Greens are a dedicated team of hard-working volunteers. Help provide support with event logistics, decorations, fundraising, and promotions in the time leading up to the big day.


All proceeds will benefit the Des Moines Area Religious Council (DMARC), an interfaith organization committed to fighting food insecurity while it has reached an all-time high in our community.

If you are interested in joining the planning committee, sponsorship or being involved in another capacity, contact Leslie Garman, Director of Development & Outreach, at 515-277-6969 or LGarman@dmarcunited.org.
