Board of Trustees

Board of Trustees

Our trustees bring experience, expertise, and vision to the Foundation. The majority are descendants of Nathan Cummings. They are philanthropists and activists in the arts, health services, religious and spiritual organizations, environmental advocacy groups, schools and universities, poverty programs, and citizen action groups. Other family members, who serve on Foundation committees as associates of the Foundation, also contribute actively to the work of the Foundation.
