Des Moines District Continues Fight Against Food
Insecurity
In October 2023, Central Division teams from the Company’s Des Moines, Iowa District partnered with Meals from the
Heartland, a nonprofit organization that distributes packaged meals for delivery to malnourished people across the world.
Des Moines District employees packaged more than 15,000 meals for those in need. In addition to the volunteer
packaging activity, Martin Marietta made a $5,000 donation to the nonprofit.
“Food insecurity is a serious problem locally, nationally and globally, and we are proud to join the fight against hunger,”
said Neil Grant, the Central Division’s natural resources director. “Our staff truly enjoys these meal packaging events. The
camaraderie is genuine, and the competition between our assembly tables has become fierce.”
Since 2016, the Des Moines District has packaged more than 150,000 meals that have been distributed across more than
40 countries.
Des Moines District employees packaged meals in October to help those
who are living with food insecurity.
