Community is so much more than belonging to something; it’s about doing something together that makes belonging Matter.

At Just Poppin’ with Jeri, we believe the sweetest communities are built by people who show up for others.

That’s why we have Pops with Purpose—our community initiative dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the incredible organizations throughout Iowa City and the surrounding communities that work every day to make our area a better place.

Throughout the year, we’ll be surprising local nonprofits, first responders, community programs, and other organizations that are creating a lasting impact with cake pops as a small token of our appreciation. More importantly, we’ll be sharing their stories so others can learn about the amazing work they’re doing and foster connection.

This initiative isn’t just about giving treats—it’s about giving recognition, spreading kindness, and shining a light on the people and organizations that make our community stronger.

Know an organization making a difference? We’d love to hear about them! Send us a message so we can celebrate the good happening all around us.

Here’s to making our community a little sweeter—together. 💛
