Board of Trustees

Our all-volunteer Board of Trustees is made up of highly dedicated business, community, and civic leaders who are passionate about education and youth advocacy. Since its inception, the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Scholarship Trust Fund has extended its reach to hundreds of student beneficiaries, thanks in large part to this dynamic group. The current Board has over 120 combined years of service to the organization, with tenure ranging from nearly 50 years to less than one year.
