Kohl Council
Your gift will grow a child’s mind through the power of play.
Kohl Council members are parents, grandparents, neighbors, friends, teachers, community leaders, philanthropists and advocates for young children who support the Museum with an annual gift of $1,000 or more. Your financial support enables our educators to engage young children in STEAM-based learning activities both at the Museum in Glenview, online, and in communities of need.
Kohl Council Impact
Here are some programs that your support can provide when you join Kohl Council:
- A Kohl Council Membership sends KCM’s mobile learning lab to an underserved community for one day.
- Kohl Explorers provide one month of supplies for innovative STEAM programs like Science Sleuths and Tinkering.
Kohl Educators fund 1,000 learning kits for children that face the greatest academic challenges.- Kohl Innovators grant museum access for 150 families through Museums for All.
- Kohl Funders give 600 children with disabilities—and their families—free, exclusive KCM access during Everyone at Play events.
- Kohl Society Members allow seven Chicago-area teachers to participate in Early Childhood Connections, a renowned teacher training program.
…and, of course, your generous gift sparks imagination and curiosity for hundreds of children each day at the Museum!
