Ramsey Subaru

Ramsey Subaru is proud to partner with WHO-TV and the Des Moines Area Religious Council's Emergency Food Pantry to promote the "Drive to Intercept Hunger" campaign.

Each Friday night at a Central Iowa high school football game, WHO-TV will be live encouraging fans to stop by the Channel 13 tent and donate food items to the cause.   All donated food items are then placed in the tailgate of one of Ramsey's vehicles - a Subaru, Mazda, Buick, Pontiac or GMC.  After the game, the food is transported via our Ramsey vehicle to the Emergency Food Pantry where it is appropriately distributed. 

The Des Moines Area Religious Council's Emergency Food Pantry is committed to providing food at no cost; they rely solely on support from generous contributors.  Financial contributions are used to buy food wholesale while donated food items are sorted, repackaged and then given to the pantry sites.  The following are some of the items especially needed:

• canned soups; canned meals (chili, stew, Chef Boyardee etc.)
• canned fruit; canned vegetables and beans
• cereal
• diapers
• infant formula & baby food
• fruit & vegetable juices
• instant potatoes
• macaroni; spaghetti; mac & cheese dinners
• spaghetti sauce
• rice
• peanut butter
• saltines
• tuna

Please support our mutual effort to Intercept Hunger - * attend an upcoming football game and bring a donated food item....the first 100 fans to donate food will receive a special "Drive to Intercept Hunger" t-shirt!
