Everyone deserves a seat at our table.
At Iowa City Free Lunch, we believe food is a basic human need and community is a powerful force for good. Every day, we provide free, nutritious meals in a welcoming space where everyone is treated with dignity, respect, and kindness.
Free Lunch for Anyone Who Needs It.
Iowa City Free Lunch is one of the “quiet services” in the Iowa City area that strives to do one thing well: provide a free, filling and healthy lunch to anyone who comes to us.
Volunteers bring a spirit of caring and compassion to our program as the people we serve are treated as guests. We come together knowing that we’re all deeply connected and dependent on one another, no matter our current circumstances.
