Supporting OCM and families in our community
For more than 40 years, the Rainbow Connectors Guild has brought together volunteers who care about Omaha Children’s Museum and the children and families we serve.
Each year, more than 50 members give their time and talents to OCM through fundraising, volunteer service, and ambassadorship. Their work helps advance the museum’s mission to engage the imagination and create excitement about learning. Guild members also have opportunities to build friendships, learn more about OCM’s work, and see firsthand how play supports early childhood learning.
Making an Impact
Guild members support OCM throughout the year by volunteering, raising funds, and taking on leadership roles within the Guild.
The Guild’s signature fundraiser, the annual For the Kids Benefit, is held on the first Saturday in May. The event raises more than $400,000 each year to support Omaha Children’s Museum. Since its inception, the Guild has helped raise more than $4.5 million for OCM.
