Board Chair and Marketing Coordinator

Ann Hilger worked in sales, marketing, and product management in the industrial food ingredient industry for twenty years, specializing in the fortification of USAID humanitarian food assistance for developing countries. She has served on school and arts nonprofit boards, and has volunteered for many charitable causes and fundraising projects. She holds a B.A. in Journalism and Political Science from Indiana University, and a Master of Nonprofit Management from Hamline University.

Ann is passionate about Second Stork’s work to support new families at what can be a vulnerable and emotional time for them. “Taking a newborn home from the hospital should be a joyous time for every family, but when you don’t have diapers, wipes or even a crib, you can’t give your baby a healthy start. It can be very stressful,” she said. Ann believes in making sure that ALL of our babies are safe and well-cared for.

Ann is an important leader in Second Stork’s operations as she leads communications, public relations, fundraising campaigns and other marketing initiatives. She and her husband Chris live in Saint Paul.
