Prairie Cares

The Prairie Cares Initiative collects and distributes food, clothing and hygiene items within our Prairie community.

Request a Food Box

The form to request a Thursday Food Box is open Friday-Monday HERE and will need to be requested each week. Food box pick up takes place in the Success Center on the backside of the high school on Thursdays from 4:15-6:00pm.

Donate

Nonperishable (and unexpired) food items as well as hygiene and cleaning products can be dropped off at the District Office behind the high school during business hours. Contact Ali Alldredge at 319-848-5224 with questions. A current list of specific needs is kept HERE.

Volunteer

Volunteers are needed to hand out food boxes on Thursdays from 4:00-6:00pm. Current sign ups can be found HERE.

This program depends on staff, students, volunteers and community partners. If your business or organization is interesting in supporting the Prairie Cares Program, contact Ali Alldredge at alialldredge@crprairie.org or 319-848-5224
