A lifelong Memphian, Leigh states “Being a part of Plough Towers is very rewarding. To see the positive impact living here has for our residents is wonderful. Both our staff and our Board of Directors are always looking for ways that not only help residents get needed services, but they also are seeking ways to give the ‘gravy’ that really gives our residents a quality life.”
