MUST Ministries to host food drive at North Georgia State Fair

MUST Ministries will host its largest food drive of the year at the North Georgia State Fair. September 27-29, attendees can donate 7 canned food items to MUST Ministries in exchange for an entrance ticket for the fair.

MUST Ministries feeds clients across Georgia through client food pantries, school food pantries, senior food boxes and the MUST Summer Lunch program. MUST also provides three hot meals each day at its Loaves and Fishes Kitchen.

The organization needs almost 100 volunteers throughout the food drive to help collect canned goods and give out entrance tickets. Volunteers will also receive a free entrance ticket to the fair and a complimentary parking pass.

"Volunteering at the North Georgia Fair is a great volunteer opportunity for students who need school/club hours," said Angel Radford, manager of volunteer services at MUST Ministries. "It’s a lot of fun and a great opportunity to interact with volunteers and the community of supporters. Family and friends are able to sign up with you and you can enjoy the Fair together either before or after your shift with your free pass!"
