“It was an honor to participate in the event and contribute to such a worthy cause,” said MaggieMoo’s CEO Jon Jameson . “We share the foundation’s goal of enriching children’s lives and bringing families toge the r, and hope that our contributions help the Lili Claire Foundation achieve this goal.”
