Mary McCaa has been a long-time resident of Pensacola, Florida. In fact, her family has been rooted in the Pensacola area since the early 1800s. She proudly serves the unhoused through her personal efforts in collaboration with local groups such a Food Not Bombs.
Mary first demonstrated a dedication to putting members of the community first when she began her career as a medical sales representative 16 years ago. Throughout her career she has volunteered with food pantries in Alabama and Florida. When the pandemic hit, Mary put boots on the ground and began cooking for and serving the growing community of individuals known as the “110 Bridge campers”. Through this service she began to develop a deeper understanding of the barriers that exist for the unhoused and those struggling to make ends meet.
Passionate about community welfare, Mary McCaa, firmly believes in the transformative power of affordable housing solutions, especially in addressing the critical needs of low-income individuals and families. With a keen understanding of the challenges faced by marginalized communities, Mary is eager to contribute her expertise towards creating sustainable, inclusive housing opportunities. Drawing inspiration from her years of being a “Navy Brat”, Mary is committed to advocating for the diverse spectrum of individuals impacted by the housing crisis, including former military, single parent families, and the homeless.
In her spare time, Mary enjoys cooking, volunteering, and spending time with her husband, Duke and dogs, Bishop and Doc.
