Foundation Board of Directors

The Geneva College Foundation was established by the Geneva College Board of Trustees. All charitable giving is processed through the Geneva College Foundation and all new endowment gifts are retained in the Foundation. Since the college budget provides the staff salaries and program activities of the Foundation, 100% of every gift goes to the Foundation.

Geneva is grateful for the leadership and oversight of a highly qualified Board of Directors.
