“It is such an honor to help shape and tell the story for the second century of The Children’s Museum—it is such an iconic brand and an internationally recognized leader in family learning and the vital role museums can play in education. To be on lead for a mission to ignite wonder, joy, and curiosity is the apex of my almost 30 years in fundraising. I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to lead a dynamic team towards a historic fundraising goal in celebration of our Centennial and the next century."—Jeannie
