Community Service
We talk about how thoughts and prayers aren’t enough, so it is important for us to show what actually makes a difference in the lives of people who need help. This committee serves to normalize atheism in the minds of the people in our community. By demonstrating that we are invested in improving the world around us, we’re able to break down stigma and negative preconceptions about atheists.
Spring 2024 Trestle to Trestle Trail Clean Up - Keeping our communities clean and safe!
In 2019, we were able to provide nearly $3,000 worth of science equipment to Lamoni schools.
IAF adopts the Trestle to Trestle portion of the bike trail in north Des Moines, and schedules regular ‘clean up days’ to help keep the trail clean.
For several years we have participated in the Blank Children’s Festival of Trees & Lights by decorating a tree to be donated for upwards of $10,000!
A school supply drive where we would raise money and then have a big shopping day to spend all the money on supplies for low-income schools.
