Cornerstone Council
The Cornerstone Council is an advisory group of 14 experts who work in the fields of estate and financial planning.
Members lend their professional expertise to the Foundations. We pass this on as a service to professional advisors and their clients, and existing donors.
Council members serve three-year terms and meet three times a year with gift planners from both Foundations.
