In this episode we sit down with Patty Clark, CEO of Metro Ministries, to hear her inspiring journey from her Memphis roots and early career in law firm administration to her calling in the nonprofit world. Patty shares how Metro Ministries serves the Coastal Bend’s most vulnerable, including working families in need and neighbors experiencing homelessness, through impactful programs like the Loaves & Fishes cafeteria, residential living, and on-site medical care.
The conversation also explores the challenges nonprofits face, the vital role of community support and philanthropy, and the upcoming events that fuel their mission, including the Poor Man’s Supper and the Coastal Bend Community Foundation’s Day of Giving.
