Patti Hernandez
Patti Hernandez was named as Volunteer of the Year for the Travis County Medical Alliance at the April 2026 General Meeting. Patti served on the Executive Board and helped to fill the role of VP Financial Development. Patti re-engaged previous donors and expanded our reach to new supporters. She developed comprehensive donor packets that included personalized letters, graphics, and informational inserts while diligently following up with prospective donors. Her persistence, professionalism and dedication were instrumental in strengthening our fundraising efforts.
