Thank you, North Star Fund Board Members

Since 1979, New Yorkers who care about justice and recognize the importance of North Star Fund’s unique role have volunteered to serve on our board of directors. This role comes with responsibility for raising money and providing oversight for the operations of the foundation. It is decidedly unglamorous, but has ensured that we have remained a resource for local grassroots organizing for decades. Thank you to all of you who shouldered this responsibility. Here are New Yorkers who have served on the North Star Fund Board from 1979-2019.*
