The Catholic Charities Food Pantry at 1815 Hubbell Avenue in Des Moines will not be able to distribute monthly food boxes until further notice due to an accident that caused structural damage to our facility. During this temporary closure, while we plan for the reconstruction and temporary service for our monthly guests, we still serve daily food bags from the window.
