Since 1981, some 200 business, educational and religious leaders have served on the board of Tri-County.  Each of them has been motivated by one compelling passion: to change the life trajectories of hundreds of children with the transformative power of a great education. They were always insistent about one thing: every school would be open to any child in need.  

Today, Tri-County is governed by a large and diverse board of men and women. Trustees come from many fields: Law, Medicine, Finance, Accounting, Banking, Human Resources, Pharmaceuticals, Publishing, Real Estate, Technology, Social Media, Interior Design, Wealth Management, Business and Business Management Consulting as well as entrepreneurs, private foundations and leaders in the non-profit sector.
