Knowlagent Community Service

Service is an integral part Knowlagent's culture, whether it's serving the community, our customers, or partners. This year, after evaluating several well-deserving organizations, Knowlagent has chosen to invest in the community through MUST Ministries. The company chooses one organization to focus on throughout the year to make the most impact on the community through donations, drives and sweat equity.

About MUST
MUST Ministries provides a homeless shelter and mentoring programs for men, women, and children as well as day services for low/no income individuals and families in need, including food, clothing, financial assistance, and showers. For more info on MUST Ministries, visit www.mustministries.org.

Cover the Basics Drive
All year, despite nationwide economic hardship, Knowlagent employees have been helping to support MUST Ministries in covering the basics for those in need. By cleaning out their closets and donating new socks and underwear, we helped clothe hundreds of people. In addition, we stocked the MUST food pantry with canned goods, peanut butter, jelly, and toiletries for the new shelter residents.

Food Service Project
Company employees rolled up their sleeves for MUST in April and again in early August. Knowlagent purchased, prepared and served lunch on-site for 120 people in the MUST kitchen in Marietta, Georgia. In addition, Knowlagent prepared 200 sack lunches for MUST to have on hand for residents who need lunch during their workday or for those individuals who are unable to stay at the shelter.

In early July, our ongoing service to and support of MUST Ministries expanded to include not only paint and supplies but a day of several employees painting the shelter as they make plans to expand and accommodate additional people in need of housing.

The Knowlagent leadership team and employees are strongly committed to the community and MUST Ministries in particular, making sure the company and its employees do everything they can to support the needs of MUST and the people they serve. In addition to continuing to cover their basic needs, some new ideas are being explored that will enable MUST Ministries and Knowlagent to partner and make a tremendous difference in the community.
