Sarah Schumacher has served on the Aim Higher Foundation’s board since its inception in 2011 and will conclude her tenure at the end of 2025. In that time, she has been treasurer and chair and has focused on expanding the organization’s impact, from 500 scholars supported in the organization’s early years to 2,900 in the 2025-26 school year. “Her impact on Aim Higher is wide-ranging and long-lasting,” says Don Mulligan, a fellow founding board member and former CFO of General Mills. Mulligan points especially to Schumacher’s time as chair overseeing a successful capital campaign, numerous governance improvements, and significant growth in the St. Paul-based nonprofit’s donor base. Schumacher dedicates her time to raising four boys and previously served in various finance roles with Best Buy.
