Meet the Board
Jamie Welby

I am Maggie's Mom and one of the establishers of Maggie's Foundation. Since December of 2005, I have served as the President of Maggie's Foundation. I am the Assistant Principal at Assumption Grade School. Maggie loved helping people and making them smile. Through Maggie's Foundation we can continue that! Whether it is awarding a scholarship or putting an event together, the Foundation always puts smiles on people's faces and makes them feel like they are a part of something special!
