"The best way to teach someone is through example,"
Leonardo Tavera explains. Proud father of a 4-year-old and a
newborn, he feels that it is everyone's duty to serve their
community in one way or another. An Internal Auditor for Capital
One Financial Corporation, Tavera chose to be a part of Mercy
Haven's Board of Directors because from the beginnings of the
organization to the present, "the raw energy and hunger to help
those in need has not dwindled or been lost in the growth of
the organization, but has instead flourished." His most
memorable moment with the agency was when he was
allowed the opportunity to tour one of the
homes. "I was
impressed not only by the facilities and people, but the overall
vibe," he says.
Mercy Haven's mission is to engage and support Long Island's most at-risk residents.
Through advocacy, housing, supportive services, education and outreach
we offer the community a place to experience and practice compassion.
