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 Stephanie Johnson at 319-848-4257 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.
