Manna Café Ministries is a Finalist for the 2025 Chick-fil-A True Inspiration Awards - Here's How You Can Help!
We’re thrilled to announce that Manna Café Ministries has been selected as a finalist in the 2025 Chick-fil-A True Inspiration Awards – and we need your help to bring this national honor home to Clarksville, TN!
This recognition highlights the impact of organizations that care deeply for their communities, and we’re honored to be the only nonprofit in Tennessee selected for this prestigious opportunity. If awarded, this grant will help Manna Café expand our food distribution efforts, strengthen our mobile outreach, and serve even more families with dignity, compassion, and consistency.
What Are the Chick-fil-A True Inspiration Awards?
The True Inspiration Awards, created in honor of Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy, recognize and support nonprofits that demonstrate exceptional commitment to:
-
Caring for people
-
Caring through food
-
Caring for communities
-
Caring for our planet
In 2025, Chick-fil-A is awarding $6 million in grants, ranging from $30,000 to $350,000, to organizations across the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, and the U.K.
Why Was Manna Café Chosen?
Since 2010, Manna Café Ministries has stood as a beacon of hope for individuals and families facing food insecurity in Montgomery County. Every week, we distribute thousands of meals, provide groceries to those in crisis, operate mobile meal services, and offer compassionate wraparound services through our Refuge center.
We were nominated in the Hunger and Poverty category for our ongoing commitment to serving our community not just with food — but with dignity.
“This recognition is a testament to the hard work and heart of our volunteers, staff, and supporters,” said Vicki York, Co-Founder and CEO. “If we’re awarded this grant, it will directly strengthen our mission to fight hunger and restore hope across Clarksville.”
