MILWAUKEE (6/12/2008) - 
Children's Hospital and Health System has announced the appointment of Jim Miller as president and chief executive officer of Children's Hospital and Health System Foundation. Miller assumed responsibility for the foundation June 9.
Under the umbrella of its $150 million More Than You Can Imagine campaign, the organization raised more than $30 million last year.

Miller also led St. Louis Children's Hospital recent $125 million campaign that exceeded $130 million.
