About House of Compassion
House of Compassion in Marshalltown, Iowa is a faith-based community organization guided by kindness, respect, and the mission to respond to neighbors' needs in the name of Jesus Christ. Founded in 1994, the organization has grown to offer three core services: a soup kitchen providing free hot meals Sunday through Friday, a monthly supply closet for essential household items and hygiene products, and client services including utility assistance, prescription vouchers, job training support, and help obtaining important documents. The organization serves approximately 50 people each evening through its soup kitchen and works closely with community partners and volunteers to address practical needs and advocate for dignity and justice in Marshall County. Their community garden helps provide nutritious produce, and they are actively working to reopen an emergency shelter to better serve those experiencing homelessness.
