Susan Diehl is this year’s luncheon honoree. Susan co-chaired the gala in 2007 and 2008. She has worked through the Junior League of North Harris and South Montgomery Counties, Inc. on immunizations, the Back-to-School Project and the Rotary Learning Center. Susan was the first chair of the Literacy Carnival, which took place at NAM for 7 years. She has also contributed her time and talents to NAM’s Food Pantry and Meals on Wheels program.
In addition to her Junior League involvement, Susan is currently an active volunteer with several community organizations. She is a 10-year board member of The Guild of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; a founding board member of The Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts; a member of the Houstonia Garden Club; and she served in the past as a board member for the Centrum Arts League. Susan is also a member of the National Charity League – Yellow Rose Chapter, where she is starting her third year as liaison to NAM.
Susan says that she likes volunteering at NAM because "it feels like family, truthfully. Chairing the gala, especially, was tons of fun; you meet friends, and those friends become family."
Susan thanks her family for being so loving and understanding through all of her volunteer ventures and says she feels very humble to be considered for this honor.
