Kelley Henderson serves as the Executive Director of Catholic Charities of West Tennessee. He is from Georgia where he spent the first half of his career providing wealth management advice to retirees and small business owners in Atlanta. The last half has been working with the poor and homeless, after finding new purpose while volunteering in a homeless shelter in 2006.
Kelley has a business degree from Georgia Southern University and a graduate degree in Theology from Spring Hill College in Mobile, AL. He is also a professed Third Order Lay Carmelite, which means he approaches life with a contemplative attitude while always leaning into justice for the poor and marginalized. Kelley is also the proud father of a daughter and recent graduate of Mercer University in Macon, GA where she hopes to continue her graduate studies in medicine.
