MLK Food Drive
The Arc of the Quad Cities Area and the Quad Cities Disabilities Awareness Coalition are excited to present the Martin Luther King Jr. Food Drive! Our goal is to support individuals with disabilities to give back to their community while addressing food insecurity. You can help improve the lives of our neighbors through supporting local food pantries and embracing inclusive volunteering.
To participate in the MLK food drive, look for food donation boxes at the entrances and exits at any of the participating locations and donate your non-perishable food items by dropping them in the box. Members from the QC Disabilities Awareness Coalition will be distributing them to participating food pantries.
The food drive will take place Tuesday, May 7th throughout Tuesday, May 21st 2024.
