Board of Trustees

The Knox County Community Foundation is represented by civic leaders who live or work in the county and who are motivated by a true desire to help their neighbors, colleagues, and friends connect with the charities they care about in a meaningful and lasting way. In addition, they are dedicated to making grantmaking decisions based on their first-hand knowledge of the community's greatest needs as well as awarding scholarships to the most qualified candidates.
