Food Drive
No one in our community should have to wonder where their next meal will come from. That is why the Made in Iowa Fall Market and Scarecrow Festival is partnering with Together We Achieve to collect nonperishable food donations for local individuals and families in need.
Please bring an eligible food donation and help us turn a fun fall weekend into meaningful support for families throughout the Cedar Rapids area.
Together We Achieve unites the personnel, skills, and resources of people from all walks of life and deploys them in times of need. We support the basic needs of our community by offering a food pantry and resource center to direct individuals in need.
In partnership with Together We Achieve we will be collecting food donations at the entrance at Made in Iowa Fall Market and Scarecrow Festival.
