Meet Ike Reighard, President and CEO of MUST Ministries, and find out how you can help your neighbors in need.

The Summer Lunches Program at MUST Ministries has just ended, and volunteers handed out a total of 189,648 lunches to needy children this summer—a 34 percent increase from last year.

MUST started the Summer Lunch Program in 1995 in Cobb and Cherokee Counties in an effort to fight child hunger. In 2011, MUST Volunteers delivered 103,000 lunches to hungry children in Cobb and Cherokee, and the program was expanded to Douglas, Paulding, North Fulton and Gwinnett communities this year.

MUST Ministries is a wonderful organization that serves a community well. Having the opportunity to spend three years volunteering with this organization was a wonderful experience. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE keep them in mind year round for donations such as food, toiletries and clothing. Their success and benefit to a community can not happen without the donations provided.
