Inspired by the life of Margaret “Margie” Kezman, the vision and motivation behind Margie’s Smile, Inc. is to establish a garden where children and their families can come to learn, play, and engage with the beauty of nature. The organization is also driven to provide an environment which fosters the same selfless love, kindness, and compassion towards people and the natural world that Margie shared with all who knew her.

Margie’s Garden, the core mission of Margie’s Smile, is a whimsical, all-accessible, interactive children’s garden space located within Boerner Botanical Gardens at Whitnall Park in Hales Corners, Wisconsin.

Margie’s Smile, Inc. aspires to ignite her passion for life within the hearts of all who pass through the garden’s gate and wander its winding paths.
