Mary Duque Juniors - Helping Children in the Los Angeles Community


Currently serving as vice president of client services at Hixme, Tammy Olson assists clients with the establishment and implementation of strategic employee benefit goals by leveraging her over 20 years of experience. Outside of work, Tammy Olson has previously served as treasurer for Mary Duque Juniors at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

An associate charitable group of the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, the Mary Duque Juniors support the pediatric healthcare facility through contributive service and monetary donations. Established in 1980, the organization invited past guild members, daughters, and daughters-in-law to the inaugural meeting and agreed to name the group in honor of Mary Duque, a longtime altruist and board member at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

In the years since the inception of Mary Duque Juniors of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, the team of dedicated females has raised more than $1.3 million for the pediatric facility. Proudly supporting the hospital, the Mary Duque Juniors are currently raising charitable donations to fund projects such as The Associates Rehabilitation Center Caregiver Wing and The Associates Sarcoma Program Chair.
