The Jeannie Bornemann Foundation was established in memory of our daughter, who died 2 years ago aged 18 in need of a second heart transplant. When Jeannie died we could not understand why God would take her, as she brought such joy to the world. Well, we began to think that maybe something good could come from this tragedy and so we decided to raise monies for kids just like Jeannie - sick and disabled children. Jeannie loved the arts, and always carried a song in her heart. She brought a sweet joy to everyone who knew her. This foundation will raise money for scholarships for kids just like Jeannie to take art, music, drama, dance - anything to do with the arts.
