23 NOVEMBER 2020 - DES MOINES, IOWA: A volunteer checks in people picking food packages before a Thanksgiving food distribution at a park in Des Moines during a snowstorm. The food distribution was organized by Urban Dreams, a community empowerment NGO in central Des Moines, and the NAACP. The food was provided by Hy-Vee, a regional grocery store chain based in Des Moines. They had about 450 meals available. A spokesperson for Hy-Vee said the company was giving away more than 20,000 Thanksgiving meals this year. The Food Bank of Iowa said food insecurity in Des Moines has doubled since the start of the Coronavirus pandemic. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
