30 Years of Volunteers and Community Impact
Dear Friends,
This Give to the Max Day, we’re celebrating a major milestone birthday, 30 years of inspiring the next generation of innovators, engineers, and creative problem solvers. Throughout these three decades, thousands of volunteers have shared this mission and deepened its impact.
One of those volunteers is Jerry Sosinske, who has shared his passion for engineering and education with us for more than twenty years. From being part of our first Tech Fest, to connecting corporate partners and inspiring students through hands-on engineering challenges, Jerry embodies the spirit of The Works Museum through his curiosity and collaboration. His efforts, and those of the hundreds of volunteers who support our work each year, have helped ignite a love of learning and discovery in countless young minds.
As we look back on the last 30 years, we also look ahead, with excitement and hope for the future. Please help celebrate our 30th birthday with a Give to the Max Day gift today, or any time before midnight on Thursday. Your donation will help provide subsidized admission, camps, field trips, family programs, and workshops, ensuring access for every child. Together we can open doors to STEM learning and empower young engineers to dream big.
To Jerry, and to each and every one of you, thank you for being part of our community.
With gratitude,
Jill Measells
CEO of The Works Museum
Join Our 30th Birthday Celebration!
This Give to the Max Day, we’re celebrating our 30th birthday—and we’ve made a birthday wish list! Instead of gifts for us, we’re asking you to help us give back to the community.
Your gift will help to ensure that every child can visit with their family or school, attend camp, or experience workshops or family engineering programs in their school.
Early giving has already started! Make your Give to the Max Day gift anytime, now through November 20, to support The Works Museum and to help our birthday wishes come true.
