Meet the A&A's Chairman
Bonnie McClure, Chairman, Associate and Affiliates; Member, Board of Trustees began her dedication to Children's Hospital Los Angeles as a volunteer when she was 17 years old.
Mrs. McClure served on the hospital’s board of directors for 19 years and is a current member of Children's Hospital Los Angeles’ board of trustees. She is a member and was past president of Children's Chain, and is an active member of the Spiritual Care Guild, two of the hospital’s 26 Associate and Affiliate groups.
Mrs. Duque personally appointed Mrs. McClure as chairman of the Associates and Affiliates’ long running and successful annual Doll Fair fundraiser, a four-year commitment. She served as co-chair of four hospital-wide premier theater fund raising events: Phantom of the Opera, Cirque du Soleil, Sunset Blvd., and Beauty and the Beast.
Mrs. McClure helped coordinate Children's Hospital Los Angeles’ Centennial Celebration and its many events, in 2001. Her dedication continues as she trains the hospital’s tour docents and manages the hospital’s archives.
Mrs. Wilson stated, when she appointed Mrs. McClure as her successor, "Bonnie’s devotion to Children's Hospital Los Angeles and our young patients knows no bounds."
