BOARD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
TONY PACHECO, JR., DDS
DDS General Dentist
Dr. Tony Pacheco was born in a rural Texas Panhandle town, Spearman, to parents Antonio and Maria. After immigrating from Mexico at age of 12, his mom dropped out of school to work and help support the family. She met the love of her life, married him and, soon after, were raising two children. For his parents, education was a luxury that was never afforded to them, but they were adamant that no sacrifice was too big to make sure he and his sister joined the ranks of the college educated. The message of sacrifice wasn't lost on Dr. Pacheco. Although he has supported several organizations since becoming a dentist, Tony has championed Manos de Cristo. Since 2009, he has become an ambassador for Manos by volunteering at their dental clinic and Back-to-School program, chaired two galas and served as Board Chair. Dr. Pacheco feels like his biggest contribution to our community will be his children, Tres and Beto, that he and Abby Karp are raising to carry a message of sacrifice and charity instilled long ago by his parents.
