, who鈥檚 been associated with 蜜桃传媒 for a quarter century, is the college鈥檚 new director of foundation and corporate relations. Neal graduated from 蜜桃传媒 in 1988 and has served at the college as a resident director and an alumni and parent relations assistant.

In her new position, Neal hopes to share the value of a 蜜桃传媒 education. 鈥淭he experiences I鈥檝e had in this place have transformed me in my heart, mind and spirit,鈥� she says. 鈥淚 look forward to communicating that vision to foundations and corporations in order to continue supporting our students with outstanding educational facilities, innovative faculty programs and financial aid.鈥�

Neal, a four-time cancer survivor, founded Kids Cancer Network in 1991 to support families with children fighting cancer.

鈥淚n those pre-Internet days, communication between families with children fighting cancer and the resources they so desperately needed was sporadic at best,鈥� Neal says.

The network published an activities mini-magazine every other month for nine years before Neal moved the information to a website (www.kidscancernetwork.org) in 2000.

Kenon and her husband, Matt, have three children: Tanner (15), Luke (11) and Aliza Grace (7).
