Meet Maya. At 22 years old, she experienced a life-altering “moment of obligation” in India as she witnessed a teacher surrounded by students learning to read and write on a bustling train platform. That experience led her to found the Global Fund for Children which has invested over $60 million in over 1000 community-based organizations impacting more than 11 million children and youth🌎

Maya's remarkable journey also led her to bring her entrepreneurial mindset to The Society of Science & the Public, an organization with a history spanning over a century. There, she's reshaping the dynamics of donor relationships, introducing innovative programs, and ensuring that every child who aspires to be a scientist can realize that dream. But that's not all—Maya is also an award-winning children's book author with more than 20 titles to her name, including "Children from Australia to Zimbabwe," which has reached over 5 million readers worldwide 📚Join us for an inspiring conversation with this exceptional founder and leader.
