Donald L. Mooney

CEO

Donald Mooney served the United States Army for twenty-two years, retired in 1997 as a Lieutenant Colonel, and went to work at his alma mater, the San Marcos Baptist Academy, entering this time not as a teenage boy from Houston, Texas, but as the Dean of Boys and Commandant of Cadets. But a meeting with local businessmen sparked a vision to start his own business, make a mark in his community and leave a legacy for his family. So in 2000, Donald founded NURSES Etc STAFFING, a company designed to respond to healthcare staffing needs in South Central Texas.  

He worked tirelessly, meeting with healthcare companies, recruiting nurses and nursing assistants and matching his customers with the staff he selected. Since those days, NES has grown into a family of companies, all focused on providing services – even for some of the same customers he nurtured in the beginning – and which now includes the Department of Defense and nationally recognized clients who need executives, physicians, nurses, IT and Logistics professionals for permanent placement or for contracts to provide temporary solutions to their staffing needs. 

Over the years, Donald was recognized with numerous awards, including Top 100 African American Business Leaders in America, the Alamo City Chamber’s Small Business of the Year and the Minority Service Firm of the Year in Federal Contracting. Donald Mooney is passionate about helping guide and strengthen other small businesses. After receiving mentorship, guidance and support while building NES, he is driven to extend the same generosity that he received in his own business venture. Donald encourages NES to give back, and the company officially mentors two Small, Minority, Woman-owned Business Enterprises in formal Mentor/Protégé programs and regularly supports other SMWBE firms working with them in a teaming capacity.  

Donald graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, the Defense Language Institute in Monterrey, California and the Command and General Staff College in Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. He and his wife Narcissa have three adult children and one adorable grandson. In 2014, the Mooney’s traveled to Rwanda on a mission trip, where they visited refugee camps, schools, and homes to assist with relief efforts. The trip made a lasting impression on the them; one which inspired them to continue their efforts stateside, and to sponsor two young boys, Oliver and Emmanuel; contribute financially to the building of a classroom in a refugee camp, and sponsor a nurse at one of the schools. 

The belief that we should help our fellow man runs deep in Donald. He began a program in his company called DME Cares. Donald L. Mooney Enterprises’ corporate employees are currently sponsoring seventeen children from Rwanda. DME Cares is also involved with United Way; “Stuff the Bus” with Communities in Schools of San Antonio; Project Cool fan donations and in many more opportunities to serve. Two years ago, Donald extended an offer to each of his corporate employees to get involved in more community service by giving them eight hours of annual paid time off in exchange for their services as volunteers. It’s very important to him that in addition to being well respected for strong business capabilities, that his companies are also known as those that affect change by actively demonstrating commitment and willingness to get involved in community service.
