That—and honoring her grandmother Rita Greene, with whom she had a special bond—is just what Kilberg had in mind when she started the program last summer using the $20,000 she inherited from Greene, who died two years ago at 86. "I thought I hadn't done enough when she was alive to let people know what I thought about her," Kilberg says of her Russian-born grandmother. "She was an amazing woman who was always there for me."
Now others say the same about Kilberg, soon to start her freshman year at Duke University. The third of five children born to a Washington lawyer and his wife, a former George Bush aide, Gillian has raised another $40,429 in donations and awards to support the effort and rounded up 70-odd volunteers to chaperone trips to the Supreme Court, the Capital Children's Museum and other sites. "This gives them the opportunity to get out, to learn, to experience childhood," says volunteer Carolyn Reid, 54. "It lets them know there's somebody out there who cares."
