Thank You!
The 45th Annual Columbian Ball
Thank You for an Extraordinary Columbian Ball!
This year’s Columbian Ball was a powerful reminder of how much we can achieve together. Because of you, our mission to inspire the inventive genius in everyone continues to thrive through innovative learning experiences and groundbreaking exhibits.
We were honored to present the Rosenwald Award to Duncan and Barry MacLean and families, recognizing their decades of transformative service and leadership. We were also proud to name Barry MacLean as the second individual among our Trustee Emeriti, honoring the profound and lasting impact he has made on this institution.
Our heartfelt thanks go to our outstanding event chairs, Linda and Joe Erlinger, whose dedication made the evening shine. We are also deeply grateful to our generous presenting sponsors Griffin Catalyst and Kenneth C. Griffin, along with our lead sponsors McDonald’s and Kent and Liz Dauten.
The Columbian Ball may be over, but the impact is just beginning. We invite you to hear directly from some of the people whose lives are touched by your generosity.
Your support is helping us build the next century of Griffin MSI.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Dr. Chevy Humphrey
President & CEO
