Ginny
Hotaling, formerly the Chief of Staff for retired U.S.
Congressman John E. Porter, has joined the Goldman
Philanthropic Partnerships as Managing Director. The Partnerships is a new 501(c)(3) not-for-profit
foundation dedicated to seeking out innovative research and
treatments for cancer and other catastrophic diseases and
funding these pioneering projects.
“With more than a decade of
government leadership combined with nearly 20 years of
education experience, Ginny will be instrumental in managing
our day-to-day operations as our foundation continues to
grow,” said Chairman George N. Goldman, who co-founded the Partnerships
with his wife, Judith, the organization’s current president. The Goldmans, who are Chicago entrepreneurs, established the Partnerships
after Judith’s battle against multiple myeloma, an incurable
blood cancer, which has been in remission for more than a
decade.
Ms. Hotaling will oversee the daily
operations and priorities of the foundation, which continues
to focus on establishing unique funding partnerships involving
innovative researchers, dedicated philanthropists and the Partnerships.
These partnerships, known as Inspired Ventures, offer
donors an opportunity to target their charitable contributions
to groundbreaking cures and treatments.
During her 12 years as Chief of Staff
for Congressman Porter, Ms. Hotaling managed three district
offices and a staff of eight to coordinate and execute
numerous public service programs.
She was in charge of a wide array of congressional
activities designed to assist constituents and affect change
at the local, state and federal level.
Ms. Hotaling also represented the Congressman as
liaison with numerous constituencies and is experienced in
legislative affairs and advocacy efforts designed to impact
health care programs.
In
addition to her work in government, Ms. Hotaling has extensive
experience as an educator and administrator at schools on
Chicago’s North Shore and in Arlington, Virginia.
She also has been involved in a range of volunteer and
community activities including membership on the Board of
Trustees of Roycemore School in Evanston and on the Glenview
Independence Day Celebration Commission.
Ms.
Hotaling attended Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa where she
earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in physical education with a
teaching minor in American and World History.
