DMARC-KET Southside Food Pantry expanding hours

The DMARC-Ket Southside Food Pantry is expanding its operating hours effective Monday, Jan. 30.

Hours:

• 9 to 5 p.m. – Monday to Friday
• 9 to 1 p.m. – First Saturday of the month (starting Sat., Feb. 4) 

This change is to reflect the rising need at the new pantry location and provide a more consistent schedule throughout the week.

The DMARC-Ket Southside food pantry opened in September 2022 at DMARC headquarters, 100 Army Post Road, Des Moines, IA 50315. The new food pantry, named the DMARC-ket Southside Food Pantry, became the 15th partner food pantry in the DMARC Food Pantry Network, and the first brick-and-mortar food pantry that is DMARC staff run and operated as an organization.
