The Koinonia Foundation is guided by a dedicated all-volunteer Board of Directors, each member serving a minimum of three years. Our board members work tirelessly to fulfill the Foundation’s mission: to provide essential financial support to organizations addressing unmet human needs, and to assist individuals whose needs are not fully covered by other funding sources.
The Board meets regularly on the second Tuesday of each month, with the exception of July and December. Together, they ensure that Koinonia’s resources are used to make a meaningful impact in our community, offering hope and assistance to those in crisis.
