Ginger Ackerley Honored

Pacific Science Center is fortunate to have some of the Puget Sound area's most generous and caring citizens among our supporters. One of those is Ginger Ackerley who has been one of Pacific Science Center's greatest longtime advocates, helping us in our quest to improve science education throughout the state. She's a former Pacific Science Center Board Member, past Board President and lifetime Director Emeritus. Ginger's leadership was instrumental in the modernization of Pacific Science Center during our last capital campaign. But helping us is just one of the many things she does for our community. The Seattle Storm recently established the Ginger Ackerley Community Service Award, a tribute to the woman who was instrumental in establishing a WNBA franchise in Seattle. The Ginger Ackerley Community Service Award will be given annually by the Seattle Storm to an individual who has had a measurable impact on improving the quality of life in the Puget Sound area through a significant and sustained record of volunteer service to the area's youth. Congratulations to Ginger Ackerley for a well-deserved honor and thank you for all that you do for all of us. →Learn More
