DES MOINES - Liberty Iowa is at the halfway point of its month long "Fall into Freedom" campaign this week.  The campaign's mission to lead through action has hosted community volunteering events across ten cities in Iowa so far.  With this week's activities, a food drive for Iowa's local food banks, Liberty Iowa is expecting the largest turnout of volunteers to date. 

"Campaigns use many tactics to get voters to hear their message, but very rarely do these tactics ever provide anything of value to the voters and their community.   For most voters, getting calls and people knocking on your door, pitching their candidate or issue is seen as an annoyance.  But by volunteering in our community regularly, Liberty Iowa members have both an opportunity to provide real value as well as receive the added bonus of meeting new people and demonstrate to them the quality of our ideas and philosophy on government" said Andy Curran, Liberty Iowa Executive Director.

So far this month, Liberty Iowa activists have participated in community events such as picking up trash in public parks and donating warm clothing to homeless and disabled veterans in ten cities across Iowa.  This week's food drive event is setting up to be the biggest event yet. 

"By volunteering in the community, Liberty Iowa activists are approaching voters about public policy issues from a different angle, one that demonstrates our commitment to the betterment of the community, while at the same time, showing how spontaneous order and volunteerism can replace many centrally planned aspects of our society" said Curran.

Liberty Iowa is a non-partisan political organization focused on maximizing Iowa citizens' personal and economic liberty.
