Proud supporters of the Aquarium of the Pacific In celebration of the founder of Sea Fare Jeanne Brodeur

eanne Brodeur served as the Vice President of Development from J2003 until 2009 when we lost our dear mentor and friend after a valiant battle with cancer. Under her leadership, she created a culture of philanthropy and established many programs that are still supporting the Aquarium today. Her love of entertaining and her passion for the culinary arts led her to create the first Sea Fare event in 2004. Her legacy continues today as Sea Fare continues to grow and thrive. Her friends and family from the Aquarium, from Emerson College, and from across the country established the Jeanne Brodeur Scholarship Fund to honor her commitment to education, children, and the ocean. Tonight, please raise a glass and toast to Jeanne’s extraordinary life!
