A Moment of Magic Founder Named to the 2025 Entreprenista 100

Honoring Visionary Women Founders Making an Impact

We’re thrilled to share that Kylee McGrane-Zarnoch, Founder and Executive Director of A Moment of Magic, has been named to the 2025 Entreprenista 100 List, a national recognition celebrating top women founders who are making waves in business, community leadership, and impact.

The Entreprenista 100 honors the boldest, most innovative women across industries and we’re proud to see Kylee’s name among changemakers who are redefining leadership and service.

“Being recognized by Entreprenista is an honor — but the real win is showing what’s possible when you believe in an idea deeply enough to chase it, even when it starts with just a costume and a lot of heart.” — Kylee McGrane-Zarnoch

From Dorm Room Dream to National Impact

Since founding A Moment of Magic in her college dorm room in 2014, Kylee has helped grow the organization into a national nonprofit with more than 25 college chapters, 2,000+ trained volunteers, and programming that has reached over 150,000 medically vulnerable children across the country.

Through character visits, creative mental health programming, and trauma-informed volunteer training, A Moment of Magic continues to bring comfort, play, and healing to children who need it most, all at no cost to families.

Why This Recognition Matters

At its core, this award isn't just about celebrating entrepreneurship. It’s about spotlighting the kind of leadership that centers empathy, community, and impact.

"To be named to this list among so many powerhouse women is an incredible honor and a reminder that purpose-driven work is powerful work,” Kylee shared.

We are so grateful to Entreprenista for uplifting mission-focused founders and to our community for helping us build a movement where joy is essential, and magic is healing.
