WU Foundation Governance
The Washburn University Foundation Board of Trustees is comprised of some of Washburn’s most talented and respected alumni and friends. Trustees represent the University and Foundation to others by serving as ambassadors, building enthusiasm for the university and its programs, encouraging contributions and recruiting and electing new trustees and board members, advisers and supporters.
The Washburn University Foundation Board of Directors is responsible for the implementation of the strategic mission of the Association and for the oversight and establishment of policies to carry the association into the future. Directors serve four-year terms upon being nominated and elected by the Board of Trustees to serve.
Trustees and Directors demonstrate a strong belief and commitment to Washburn University’s mission, goals, and priorities and the Foundation's mission. These individuals are enthusiastic advocates for the University, its schools, colleges and units, and Washburn University Foundation.
