One Less Obstacle

1 Less Obstacle: doing what we can to create a clearer path for the kids, for the family, and for the world!

Winston Churchill once said, “we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” This is what it’s all about, this is what One Less Obstacle is about. Removing obstacles and making kids happy! One of the best things I’ve been apart of.

Do you know of any families in Eastern/Southeastern Iowa who can benefit from receiving a thanksgiving lunch/dinner meal kit? If so let us know! We have 5 slots left to assist families who may need an obstacle removed this holiday season.

Joy answered the call to join many others across eastern Iowa who were making face mask for those who needed them. Thank you for meeting the needs of our times and removing obstacles!

In the midst of the pandemic, Sarah kickstarted a push to provide many communities within the State of Iowa with face mask. Thank you for meeting the needs of our times and removing obstacles!

Last year we were able to donate over 130 backpacks filled with school supplies to children in Southeastern Iowa. We are so happy we were able to provide them brand new school supplies and a brand new backpack to start the year off right! #TBT #OneLessObstacle

We have seen some new faces around, so we wanted to reintroduce the founder of One Less Obstacle, Jamarco Clark. Jamarco started One Less Obstacle in 2017 and has been paying it back ever since!

The AAMI will be closed to the public March 17 through the 21. Our team has made this decision out of an abundance of caution and an interest in taking the time to plan and evaluate. Please visit https://t.co/HYHqE2gr16 for full details.

Iowa friends, If the school closures have you concerned about your child not being able to eat breakfast or lunch let me know. Don’t hesitate to reach out!

One Less Obstacle, all about the kids!
