A huge thank you to the McCoy Cares Foundation and Wawa for helping us care for the volunteers who make our mission possible. Thanks to a generous grant from The McCoy Cares Foundation, we're able to provide snacks for our incredible volunteers, while Wawa's donation of bottled water helps keep them refreshed throughout their shifts.

Every day, our volunteers give their time, talents, and compassion to provide free healthcare for uninsured neighbors across Central Florida. Thoughtful support like this ensures they have the fuel they need to continue serving our patients with excellence.

As we begin National Nurses week, we celebrate the compassion, dedication, and strength of the nurses who care for our patients every single day.

At Shepherd’s Hope, our nurses do far more than provide medical care; they offer comfort, advocacy, encouragement, and hope. Whether they’re welcoming a new patient, managing care with expertise, or simply taking a moment to listen, their impact reaches far beyond the exam room.

To every nurse on our team: thank you for the skill, heart, and humanity you bring to this mission. Your work changes lives, and our community is stronger because of you.

This Volunteer Appreciation Week, we’re celebrating the people who make the mission of Shepherd’s Hope possible.

We’re honored to highlight two dedicated volunteers, both of whom represent the compassion, commitment, and heart that fuel this work every day. Their service helps make compassionate, accessible healthcare possible for thousands of uninsured neighbors in our community. We’re deeply grateful for the many volunteers who help carry this mission forward and for the supporters who make that service possible.

Students from Orlando College of Osteopathic Medicine are gaining real-world experience while making a meaningful impact, volunteering monthly with Shepherd’s Hope to serve uninsured and underinsured families.

For student Mariana Valdez, the experience is deeply personal. After losing her mother and questioning her path in medicine, volunteering at Shepherd’s Hope reignited her passion. Now, she’s come full circle, returning as a medical student to care for others alongside a team dedicated to compassion over cost.

Through this growing partnership, students are stepping beyond textbooks, shadowing physicians, assisting patients, and learning what it truly means to practice medicine.
