Worth Morgan has demonstrated strong leadership while serving on the Memphis City Council since 2016. Worth was born and raised in Memphis and knows "We Deserve Better."
Worth and his wife, Bonner, along with their Jack Russell Terrier, Leo, are excited to launch his campaign for Shelby County Mayor and are thrilled to have this opportunity to serve.
?Much of Worth Morgan's spirit for public service derives from a deeply-rooted faith and his personal health struggles. "Everyone has a battle they're wrestling with. Some are more visible than others. When we understand this about one another, we learn to treat our neighbor with a little more grace and life with a lot more humility," said Morgan.
"Since I was ten years old, I haven't been able to take this life for granted. Without a doubt, LeBonheur Children's Hospital saved my life as I battled through a difficult and rare liver disease. To this day, I still fight with an auto-immune disorder called Crohn's disease. Where some people would see weakness, I have found strength, patience, and hope. Everyone deserves an opportunity to live a fulfilling life of purpose and peace. With whatever time I have, with whatever strength I have, my life will be fulfilled if I can help provide that opportunity for others. That's why I'm running. Time is a precious gift, and I intend to make use of it."
