Fresh Manna - The Opening of a Dream!

March has been a very fruitful and encouraging month as Naomi had the opportunity to travel to South Africa for the grand opening of Fresh Manna, the restaurant concept created by Noleen Glasgow, the recipient of one of Wellspring’s first individual grants. Noleen is the perfect example of why Wellspring exists. She is a woman who found herself in the midst of some very difficult circumstances where she could have easily lost hope. But she had a dream and the motivation to pursue it and with the support of Wellspring and a few key others, she dedicated herself to realizing those dreams. This month proved to be just another step for Noleen as she continues to pursue a positive and self-sufficient life for herself and for her son. We are incredibly proud of Noleen and so excited for this new phase of her life where she gets to enjoy the fruits of her labor!
