Yeah. You know, one way to look at Gary and Jeannie, Herberger I think is
if you look at the history of their engagement in the community and their
philanthropy, which is very unusual. Uh their philanthropy and their
engagement is all built around what I call intellectual fabric.
Mhm
Jeannie and Gary take great joy in working in the community. You can tell
it's deeply satisfying to them and gives them huge satisfaction to be a
part of this community.
Yeah. Mhm. Mhm, mm hmm.
Education is very important to Jeannie and Gary and I'm actually also very
involved in education, a lot of fun to work with them on the Herberger
Academy for gifted students. Gary has been a regular visitor there and
really excited about what's going on. And I know Jeannie cares
passionately about it as well
in talking to Gary and Jeannie about what their vision was for this
academy, it was important that we provided an opportunity for kids to be
able to take risks and to try something new and different. And if it
doesn't work out then, you know, we try something else, but it's a safe
environment for them.
If you're looking at the symphony, if you're looking at other areas of the
arts and other areas of expression, if you're looking at design schools
and architecture schools, if you're looking at the digital culture
initiative that they've become involved with. If you're looking at the new
school for the profoundly gifted Children, it's all about the same thing.
It's about how can you take human potential and move it to the highest
level of creativity. Thank you mary and Jeannie. Mhm.
Yeah. Yeah.
