About the Foundation

Board of Directors and Staff
Since we are a foundation serving the entire region of Niagara, our Nominating Committee has recruited leading citizens from across the region to serve on our board. These men and women bring a wealth of skills and expertise to their work for the foundation. Many are currently volunteers in leadership positions in charities and not-for-profits throughout the Niagara Region.
