New CEO of Greater Milwaukee Foundation is sister of lunatic HHS head Sebelius
From back in November:
Ellen Gilligan, president and CEO of the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, was the guest last Tuesday for the latest edition of Mike Gousha’s “On the Issues.” Sitting before an appellate courtroom in Eckstein Hall filled with students, teachers and members of the community, Gilligan discussed her dedication to improving the city and the future of education in Milwaukee.
Although the cities are similar, Gilligan said Milwaukee has a decidedly different vibe than Cincinnati. While there, Gilligan served as vice president for community investment at the Greater Cincinnati Foundation. The youngest of five and daughter of a former congressman and governor of Ohio, Gilligan often heard political conversation at the dinner table, but was not interested in politics herself.
“My family feels very strongly about the importance of public office, so this was my way of improving the community without running for office,” Gilligan said.
As the new leader of the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, Gilligan plans to use her experience with similar community-based initiatives in Cincinnati to help improve the Milwaukee area.
