During the month of December, Steere Home Builders donated 1 item to the Northeast Iowa Food Bank for each new friend on our Facebook Page. Our deadline was December 21. By December 21, we had 67 new likes, and 67 items! After December 21, we gained 7 more, so we decided to throw those items in as well.
As a result, we donated 74 items to the food bank. The NE Iowa Food Bank is one of 6 food banks in Iowa.
It is estimated that 1 out of 8 Iowans go to bed hungry. At least 40,000 Northeast Iowa residents (this number includes at least 16,000 children and 4,000 seniors) receive emergency food assistance each year from the NE Iowa Food Bank and it’s member agencies.
At Steere Home Builders, we are proud to be able to participate in this small way to assist Iowans with food security.
