Board of Directors

Meet the APS Education Foundation Board of Directors

The Foundation has a big volunteer board with a long reach. Our volunteer board represents big business and small, family owned-firms, the Albuquerque community and has ties to almost every part of our city. We even have APS students who are full voting members. But mostly, we have passion. Our board cares — and puts in sweat equity to help make the Foundation great.
