Harvest Compassion Center is proud to celebrate our March Volunteer of the Month, Donnita! Originally from Texas, she spent 10 years in California before settling in Arizona 31 years ago. Her professional background includes medical records, physician billing and insurance, and 15 years serving at a local high school before retiring in June 2023. She is a proud mom of three, grandmother of 13, and great-grandmother of eight, and enjoys baking sweet treats and knitting in her spare time.

After retiring, Donnita knew she wanted to give back. A friend introduced her to Harvest Compassion Center, and after dropping off a donation and seeing the mission in action, she knew she wanted to be part of the HCC family. She began volunteering in November 2023 and serves in the Boutique on Mondays, always willing to jump in wherever needed. Donnita says the most rewarding part is seeing clients treated with love and respect and witnessing their smiles and hugs as they leave. She treasures the friendships she has built and encourages others to volunteer as a meaningful way to pay it forward. We are so grateful for her servant heart and the joy she brings to every shift!
