“Huntsville City FC is proud to support the efforts of Manna House and their work to address food insecurity throughout the region,” said Brandon Hill, Head of Community Engagement for Huntsville City FC. “This event ensures people will have access to the food they need and fewer of our neighbors will live in hunger.
