Meals From the Heartland Service Project
One of the Iowa Chapter's goals to achieve chapter excellence is partnership with service organizations. We had such a great response last year participating in Meals From the Heartland, we decided to bring it back in 2025! This event will be held on Wednesday, April 2 from 2:30 to 4:30 pm at Meals from the Heartland (just a 10 min drive from the Sheraton).
The Iowa Chapter will cover the cost of the supplies for the meals and volunteers are needed for help in packing up the meals.
We are at capacity for volunteers! If you want to get on the waitlist to volunteer, email Beth Richards or Consider making a donation!
Check out the Meals From the Heartland website for even more info.
A special thank-you to our educational partners:
