Clarksville, TN – If you were to walk down the street and ask every person you saw what their dream was, they would have something to tell you. No matter how big or small, everyone has a dream.
For Kenny York, Founder and CEO of Manna Café, that dream has been a community of people who share the same mission: to meet the needs of homeless and low-income families in Montgomery County. After many years of waiting, that dream will finally become a reality.
