Since 1923, the Moms Association has been promoting the welfare and interests of the University and its students through services and open communications on campus and throughout the state including a robost scholarship program.

President
Kelley Kalinich
Being a part of the Moms Association has given me the opportunity to not only feel a part of the University, but also to learn more about the richness of experiences offered to students and their families.

Past President
Stephanie Sikorski
I became a part of the Illini Moms quickly after I realized the University offered an experience for all of our family members. I've made amazing connections and am on a mission to help all mothers of students know they are also an Illini Mom!

Treasurer

I enjoy collaborating with other moms to support the needs of UIUC students. It is a way for me to give back to an institution that has given my family and me so much over the years.

It has been a great way to meet other moms who are committed to the community and students and create a positive experience. Seeing the impact we have created through our scholarships and having a Mom of the Year has been great to be a part of.

Member, Co-Communications Chair
Stacy Petry
I joined the Illini Moms Association to connect and engage with a community of fellow Illini parents and stay connected to my child’s college experience. I enjoy participating in events and activities that contribute to the success and experiences of Illini students!

Member
Stasia Sienna
I joined the Illini Moms Association to become more connected to the UIUC community. Despite the fact that my husband served on the UIUC faculty for over 25 years, I’ve had very little direct involvement with student and/or parent activities. Engaging through the moms group is a way to give back and change that!

Member, Co-Communications Chair
Ellen Singn*
I joined the Illini Moms Association to support students with a special interest in student scholarships. I have made meaningful friendships within this dynamic group of women who have the same commitment and passion for our UIUC students as myself.

Member, Past President

I love hanging with the fascinating women on this board. Having a very deep connection to U of I with a lot of institutional knowledge., I believe our work in supporting students is of critical importance. I needed many scholarships to graduate twice from U of I, and it feels good to pay it forward.

Member
Jenelle Wright*
I enjoy collaborating with other moms who are proud to serve U of I and its students (including our children!).
