Veteran Market

Our Veteran Market relies on the generosity of corporate and individual monetary and food donations to operate. We distribute items such as cereal, pasta, vegetables (both fresh and canned), soups, meats, fruits (fresh and canned), and dairy products. Personal care items for men and women, such as razors, deodorant, shampoo and conditioner, are also available. We also accept household items such as laundry soap, dish detergent, kleenex, paper towels, and toilet paper.

Call (319) 826-2010 if you’d like to make a monetary or food donation, and follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to see a list of current items we need. We also have an Amazon wish list if you prefer to shop from the comfort of your own home. Amazon wish list items can be directly shipped to our office.
