Editor's
note: The following editorial content was submitted by the Trish DeBerry-Mejia
campaign.
Small
businesswoman Trish DeBerry-Mejia's decision to run for mayor evolved from her
public service. In addition to serving as president of Guerra DeBerry
Coody Marketing & Communications, DeBerry-Mejia has been civically engaged.
"For
more than ten years I have been actively involved in civic organizations
dedicated to improving San Antonio's quality of life. Running for mayor
was a natural evolution of my commitment to this city,” said DeBerry-Mejia.
Her
leadership roles have included chairing the Children"s Museum; serving on the
boards of the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Alliance,
Rotary International, and as a founding member of the South Texas Hispanic
Fund. Through
that same ten year period, Trish also championed quality of life issues.
She managed various public referendums, to include enhancing
transportation funding; guiding school district, community college
and municipal bond campaigns; and fighting so that small businesses can offer
employees on-site childcare.
"My
business partners and I decided to offer onsite childcare for our employees’
children. Our facility, staffed by child development professionals,
teaches children colors, days of the week, the alphabet and introduces them to
Spanish,” said DeBerry-Mejia. “Ultimately, we had to lobby the
Legislature for permission to allow small businesses to host an onsite
childcare facility.”
In 2007,
the Wall Street Journal named GDC one of the 15 Top Small businesses in the
country - the only Texas business so honored that year. “Given the
current economy, City Hall could benefit from some practical belt-tightening
business experience, and I have that,” said DeBerry-Mejia.
