Diana Alvear started volunteering at Mission of Mercy three years ago. In July 2018 she was hired as our part-time Community Outreach Coordinator. Her main focus was to work with other agencies throughout our community to bring programs and services to Mission of Mercy for our patients. She works closely with DARS and our Vision Clinic, the Coastal Bend Food Bank to bring healthy cooking classes, and various Texas A&M programs to help our patients get not only the best care possible but to educate and empower them through educational classes.
Diana also works in the medical clinic and this past November became a full time employee. During this last year, she worked hard to complete her college courses and graduated as an LVN. "I enjoy helping the patients that need resources and needs in general. The atmosphere is like a big family," said Diana when asked what she likes most about working at Mission of Mercy.
Diana is also on Team Sherry which helps put on our MASH BASH event every year. Diana and her husband Cat help secure auction items, set up and tear down for the event. We are lucky to have someone with such compassion and willingness to help others.
