Meghan Sayer joined the Paoli Hospital Foundation as executive director in 2016, after eight years of working in the development office at Westtown School. Prior to her time at Westtown, Meghan was associate director of development at Bryn Mawr Hospital from 2002–2007 helping with the $15 Million dollar Emergency Department Campaign.

Meghan is a graduate of Penn State University with a Master Degree in human service administration. She loves that her job in development allows her to meet a variety of people who want to make a positive impact on their community. Since returning to Main Line Health she has been impressed by the warmth of the Paoli Hospital staff and the generosity of the donors. “Everyone has been so helpful and reading the dozens of grateful patient stories affirms that I am just where I need to be.”

Meghan is a resident of Berwyn with her husband and two sons. She enjoys watching her boys play baseball, and soccer, running on the Chester Valley trail, and spending time with her extended family.
