MUST Ministries opens another school food pantry to help at risk students and their families
MUST Ministries opened its 22nd school food pantry for families living in poverty.

MUST Ministries’ Save It Forward food pantries are now in 22 schools throughout Cobb County and Marietta City Schools Districts, following the opening of a much-needed resource in the Marietta Sixth Grade Academy. Rhonda Smith, Senior Director of Program Operations for MUST Ministries, cuts the ribbon with Chris Fields, MUST EVP of Programs and Administration, Dayton Hibbs, Associate Superintendent for Marietta City Schools, Corey Lawson, Principal of Marietta Sixth Grade Academy, Ike Reighard, MUST President and CEO and Leigh Colburn, Director of the Graduate Marietta Student Success Center. Each child receives approximately 75 pounds of food and toiletries once a month. Sixty-four percent of the students in Marietta City Schools are eligible to participate in the free and reduced lunch program.
