Dr. Mary Jean Dehne
Founder, Development Director
Why are you on the Legacy Children’s Foundation team?
With an undeniable nudge to work with scared and struggling youth, I have been privileged to create with them the life-changing resources and relationships of LCF. There is no greater joy than to see their fear and failure turn into unstoppable determination and radiating success.
What is the most challenging thing you have done?
To trust God who moved me out of the secure arena of public school education into the unknown challenges of nonprofit development with youth.
Most Influential Mentor
Jesus Christ
