Manna Café needs Volunteers for Emergency Warming Center

Manna Café MinistriesClarksville, TN – As frigid nighttime temperatures continue, Manna Café is requesting volunteers to help staff their emergency warming center, located in the Refuge Outreach Center at 503 D Street.

Co-founder Vicki York explains, “The center is run almost exclusively by volunteers, and our core team is often exhausted. But it’s a crucial service, ensuring that the homeless aren’t forced to tough it out in life-threatening conditions.”

Volunteer coordinator Kim Holbrook adds, “We appreciate every hour anyone can help us serve our less fortunate neighbors. All you have to do is sit with people, help them check-in, maybe serve some coffee or food, and have a chat.”

Donations of warming center items are also appreciated. These include Ramen noodles, toilet paper, bottled water, instant oatmeal, peanut butter crackers, gently used warm clothes, towels, and blankets.
 
Manna Café thanks the community for its continued support and generosity.
