Board of Directors
The Gateway Community College Foundation is administered by a Board of Directors composed of community leaders representing the Greater New Haven’s business, education, government and health care sectors. The Executive Committee consists of the Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary and Treasurer. Standing Committees include: Finance, Scholarship, Nominating and Resource Development. According to the By-Laws, the Board meets at least four times a year.
Their voluntary efforts, and the incredible commitment of business, organizations and individuals throughout the region provide connections that, each and every day, make for a more vibrant connected community. It begins with leadership, dedication and caring, which every Board member exemplifies with distinction.
“The Board touches lives so magnificently. I was really struck by the amazing level of involvement from day one. It is truly an all-star team, with a diversity of background and expertise that makes it magical.” - Thomas Beirne III, CFP® Chair, GCC Foundation Board; Vice President, Senior Wealth Management Planning Officer and Business Development Officer at Washington Trust Wealth Management .
