We’ve change our name but not our mission!

You’ve known us as the McLean Foundation, and the McLean Foundation Board of Directors.

Now we’re got a name change: The Development Department, and the McLean Development Committee. Everything else remains the same. Same staff, same volunteer leadership, same mission, same purpose.

Our name change represents a structure change to better serve our mission.

Now, as a Development Department, staff is easily integrated into McLean systems while our Development Committee can focus on what they love to do: building relationships, friendships, goodwill and charitable investments.

If you don’t like our new name and have a better idea, we welcome your suggestions! Don’t hesitate to give either of us a call:
