The Grand Rapids Children's Museum salutes former volunteer Hope Bradley for her extraordinary work!

Hope worked hard EVERY week behind the scenes to build and maintain computer databases, which helped the Museum serve thousands of children who came on field trips to experience hands-on learning through play.

Speaking of her volunteer experience, Hope said, “Volunteering adds a deep richness to my life. Sometimes it’s in watching a child discover something new, sometimes it’s in the fellowship with others I am working with, and sometimes it comes from the fellowship with those I serve."

Thank you, Hope, for all you did for the Grand Rapids Children's Museum!
