Every day Iowans struggle to find healthy nutritious food at an affordable cost to feed their families. Hunger in Iowa and around the United States is a very real thing. 5.4% of Warren County residents in 2021 were food insecure.

When You Give
When you donate to The Helping Hand of Warren County, you join the fight against food insecurity and decreasing food waste. You support our food recovery and transportation teams that go into grocery stores and collect food that can be placed in community refrigerators across our county, senior centers, low income housing, trailer parks, schools, churches and more.
When you donate - you build an individual up by giving them the essentials to make healthier choices because we understand the critical connection between a healthy body and a healthy mind.
Monetary Donations
Monetary donations give us the opportunity to purchase items that are needed in our food and personal care pantries at a discount rate through the Food Bank of Iowa and local grocery and retail stores. For example, there are times when we can purchase 12 - 14oz cans of spaghetti sauce for a total of $1.50 or receive 10% off our entire purchase from our local Hy-Vee.
If you would like to mail your donation, please send it to:

HyVee Receipts
Would you consider donating your Hy-Vee receipts to support our cause? For every $100,000 in receipts we collect, we receive $350 in store credit from the Indianola Hy-Vee. It's a simple way to help that makes a big difference! You can drop off your receipts at Helping Hand during donation hours or at the East Entrance of the Indianola Library. Thank you for your support!
