COVID-19 has hit many families hard. With added stress of the August Derecho many people are struggling. We compiled a list of food pantries and homeless shelters in the Cedar Rapids/Iowa City areas. Many accept clothes as well as non-perishable food items as donations. There may be others that are closer to you or have different social distancing guidelines. Please check their web sites if you have questions or concerns as well as their open and closing times as many vary day-to-day.
