WASHINGTON, Aug. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Juliet Gilliam has joined the National Park Foundation (NPF) as Vice President of Media and Entertainment Partnerships. In this inaugural role, Gilliam will lead the organization’s efforts to partner with leaders in the media and entertainment industries to advance its mission and impact.

I look forward to creating collaborations with partners across the industry that spotlight the importance of our national parks and the many stories that inspire their preservation to ensure they thrive for generations to come.”

Gilliam will build the department from the ground up, developing an effective business plan to drive strategic partnerships, connect and engage new audiences, and amplify NPF’s impact leveraging media and entertainment partnership platforms.

Gilliam brings more than 20 years of experience designing, creating, planning, and implementing purpose-driven integrated marketing campaigns, entertainment partnerships, and philanthropic platforms at global organizations. Prior to her role at Special Olympics International, she held leadership positions at SagePoint Collective, LLC, United Service Organizations, and ESPN Incorporated.
