Mahaska Health team members and community volunteers work together at the Southern Iowa fairgrounds on the second Monday of each month to lead the Food Bank of Iowa mobile food pantry. This initiative helps families in need of food assistance across the state of Iowa.
As a Food Bank of Iowa partner, Mahaska Health facilitates the Oskaloosa mobile food pantry and, with the help of loyal volunteers, consistently serves over 170 meals each month. Those interested in benefiting from the mobile food pantry can fill out the Food Assistance Eligibility form provided by the Food Bank of Iowa at https://foodbankiowa.org
“Oskaloosa Mobile Food Pantry fills a need within our community, supporting many individuals in their time of need. Our team is honored to partner with the Food Bank of Iowa to serve members of our community”, shared Paula Falconer, Mahaska Health Community Relations Coordinator
