Des Moines Corporate Games – Meals from the Heartland Challenge

Jun 1 to Jul 31
357 Lincoln St.
West Des Moines, IA 50265

 

Hello Des Moines Corporate Games Participants!

Thanks for volunteering with us!
  • The games begin June 1 and end July 31, 2024.
  • Our calendar is open so get your team registered for a 2-hour shift at our West Des Moines Patty Cownie Packaging Center. (Don’t forget to add “DCG” + your team name when registering).
  • Each packager will pack enough meals to feed 2 children for an entire year!
  • Points are earned for each packager. Each packager counts for 1 point. Packagers can include family and friends as well. They can also package at multiple shifts to earn multiple points.
  • Don’t see a time on the calendar that works for your group? Contact us to discuss bringing a Mobile Packaging Event to your location! (The minimum cost for a Mobile Event is $2,900 and 50 people are needed for 1 hour of packaging).
  • More information about Des Moines Corporate Games can be found here.

We currently have a great amount of volunteer interest and we’re thankful your group has chosen us as a way to give of your time!
It is not common knowledge that the meals packed are not donated. We rely on grants, sponsorships and donations financially for the ingredients used in the meals volunteers package.

Currently, our volunteers are outweighing  financial contributions.

Food costs have risen considerably. In order for us to sustain our ability to continue offering open packaging opportunities for our community, we encourage donations of any size.  

Each volunteer packs about $150 worth of ingredients. Please consider contributing financially.

Any and all donations are appreciated.
