1. More about Yassin, restauranteur and humanitarian:

https://seedsandbridges.org/

"Seeds & Bridges is Yassin’s new non-profit vision, named so because he says that seeds grow into thriving plants and bridges connect communities.

Yassin has continually sown seeds in his Falafel House as he has lifted his employees to rebuild lives after seasons of despair.

He has also built bridges with the community in the years he has been in Knoxville, being named Reader’s Digest “Nicest Place in America” and awarded the 2018 Rotary Peace Prize.

Yassin who came to the United States and Knoxville from Syria says, “I came here with nothing and so many people helped me. I want to help others and I want the community to keep repeating this after me.”...(more)
