Our Annual Events

The Coldest Night of the Year is an annual, family-friendly walk with locations across the United States and Canada. The purpose is to raise money for local charities serving people experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness.
Heroes for Homeless is Central Iowa Shelter & Services’ signature event. Every year, we pause to recognize and honor the heroes who have gone above and beyond helping some of Des Moines’ most vulnerable population…our homeless.
In 2025, Central Iowa Shelter & Services (CISS) will be hosting our 7th annual Fore Homeless Veterans Golf Tournament benefiting the homeless U.S. veterans that are staying with us in our emergency shelter.
