Co President Cherry Browne
Board Member Since 1997-2007 & 2018 - Current Portfolio: Co President - HR - Marketing Cherry fell in love with Toy Libraries when her children were toddlers. Inspired at a AGM for Burwood Toy Library back in 1995 Cherry quickly developed a deep passion for charitable work within the Toy Library community. Her first time on the board for 10 years involved being Treasurer, President and Toy Express Manager, also helping run a couple of Toy Library conferences. A break of 10 years, the birth of her grandchildren and being a second time around Toy Library member, Cherry is still very passionate about the Toy Library community. |
