He’s got an eye for design and a fresh take on storytelling – meet Mason Lopez, our summer Creative intern.
Mason is currently studying Graphic & Interactive Design at @HACC_info, where he’s honing his skills in Graphic Design. In honor of National Intern Day, we’re putting the spotlight on Mason as he kicks off his journey with us. We asked him a few rapid-fire questions:
🎧 Creative fuel?
“New music, video games and the community of fellow creatives.”
💡 Biggest lesson so far?
“When I’m doing personal work, giving my mind permission instead of pressure is where the best ideas begin.”
🎯 Can’t-live-without tool?
“Illustrator. It’s where I can tackle any part of the design process.”
Thanks for all your hard work, Mason – we’re lucky to have you!

Your community is listening. Make every message count.
At GAVIN, we work alongside FQHCs, CHCs, and nonprofit leaders every day, and one thing is clear: reaching patients, earning trust, and securing funding takes more than delivering care—it takes communication with clarity and purpose.
That’s why we’re launching a new monthly newsletter designed to help you:
- Reach more patients
- Strengthen community trust
- Keep funding communications on point
If your mission matters (and we know it does), your messaging should reflect it.

How do you stay true to your organization’s mission while navigating emotionally charged conversations?
That’s the challenge Finanta’s executive team brought to us. As its C-suite and leaders increasingly face tough questions from the media on polarizing topics – especially those affecting minority and undocumented communities – they needed strategic guidance to communicate clearly, confidently and in alignment with their values.
We delivered custom media training that pushed them outside their comfort zone. From on-camera mock interviews to role-playing as reporters, we created space to practice high-stakes conversations before they happen in real life.
The impact was clear: after just one session, Finanta’s executives reported a 21% increase in confidence, and 89% said they feel more prepared to represent their mission publicly.
That’s the power of a trusted partner who challenges you – so you’re ready when it matters most.
Don’t wait until tough questions catch you off guard. Let’s get your leadership ready: https://t.co/kgHRcayOLH.
