(Undated) -- Culinary students at Des Moines Area Community College are now accepting orders for their Fourth Annual Thanksgiving Dinner Roll Fundraiser. The deadline to place an order is 12 p.m. on Mon., Nov. 20, 2023.
Rolls can be pre-ordered by the dozen in either white or whole wheat and will be packaged in a foil pan to make them easy to heat up. The cost is $6 per dozen, and order pick-up will be available from 10 a.m. to Noon on Wed., Nov. 22, at both the DMACC Newton Campus in Newton and the DMACC Urban/Des Moines Campus in downtown Des Moines. You will be asked to specify your preferred pick-up location when placing an order.

Last year’s fundraiser set a record for total orders, with students preparing 263 dozen – or 3,156 individual – dinner rolls for customers.
“Students in the Iowa Culinary Institute at DMACC’s Baking and Pastry Arts program are excited to work together on the Thanksgiving Dinner Roll fundraiser again this year,” said Chef Ryan Binney, who leads the Baking and Pastry Arts Program at the DMACC Newton Campus. “It’s a great group project for our students, and proceeds will help fund student travel to the 2024 American Culinary Federation (ACF) National Convention next summer in Phoenix.”
