Humanity House is now offering free delivery of its food pantry items and Grandma’s Kitchen Sunday meals as part of a partnership with DoorDash.

Project DASH is a nationwide partnership between DoorDash, government agencies and community-based organizations to improve access to food and reduce food waste.

Humanity House will take orders and schedule deliveries, typically within one hour for food pantry orders. Deliveries can only be within 10 miles of Humanity House. That means orders can be delivered to places in Iola, Gas and LaHarpe. Humanity House leaders will consider opening satellite locations in other communities at a future date, if there is enough demand and if drivers are available.

Orders for Grandma’s Kitchen will need to be placed by noon the Friday prior to Sunday’s meal. The next two Grandma’s Kitchen days are Nov. 6 and 13.

There is no delivery charge, and recipients are asked to not tip drivers. Drivers are paid by DoorDash. 

To place an order or for more information, call Humanity House at 620–380-6664.
