With a heart devoted to faith, family, and service, Ginger Riley embodies the mission of Do Something Right Now in both word and deed. Married to Scott Riley, the organization’s Global Director, for 30 years, Ginger shares in a lifelong commitment to ministry and outreach that spans across continents and communities. Together, they are proud grandparents of four grandchildren, and their family continues to be a source of joy and inspiration in all they do.
For more than 30 years, Ginger has faithfully served in the local church in a variety of roles, including six years as a children’s pastor. Her heart for people—especially the vulnerable and the next generation—has been evident in every season of ministry. Beyond the church, Ginger has joined numerous mission trips to Central and South America, India, and Nepal, where she has helped build wells and churches, and supported orphans and widows through hands-on compassion.
As the Director of Hogan House, Ginger leads by example. She is often found serving at the local food pantry on most Fridays and Sundays, helping ensure families in need are cared for with dignity and love. Her impact extends into mentoring single moms and young mothers, teaching valuable life skills and offering hope through relationship. Ginger also plays an active role in Hogan House’s Tuesday and Wednesday night programs, where neighborhood kids gather for fun, food, and faith-building activities.
Known for her warmth, humility, and steadfast faith, Ginger Riley continues to model what it means to “do something right now”—meeting needs, building community, and living out the love of Messiah every day.
