The direction of the Foundation is vested in its board of directors, comprised of citizens from a broad spectrum of the community who are appointed by the board. About 40 people currently serve on the board. Initially, board members are appointed to a two-year term.
Subsequent terms are for four years.
Foundation board members work in small committees to form, develop and promote a number of objectives in order to raise contributions. Hundreds of community and college volunteers offer their time, expertise and services to help the board develop and promote Foundation objectives.
