The group has consistently supported signature events including the Holiday Gala, Valiant Women Wall of Honor, Valiant Women Fashion Show, Golf Classic Tournament, and COVID-19 Emergency Preparedness Fund.

Dr. Marquez has held multiple leadership roles including chair of the pharmacy and therapeutics committee, chair of medicine, secretary-treasurer, chief of staff-elect, chief of staff, chair of critical care medicine, and he is a member of the board of trustees.
