Children’s Home Coordinator
Alan Turner
Alan has been part of the Amigos de Jesus family since his first tenure as a volunteer in 2008 when he ended up as a volunteer for over three years in two different stints. No one could have imagined that an Aerospace Engineering degree from the University of Notre Dame would lead to a life as a volunteer and eventually a permanent staff member (since 2013) at Amigos de Jesus. Alan is known for his endless patience - from managing the complicated logistics of the lives of 135 children and youth to helping students with math and science homework - he gives constantly of his time and love. Originally from Houston, Texas, Alan’s whole family is also involved with Amigos de Jesus.
