At the heart of LEAD STL's success and impact are our dedicated governance and support bodies: the Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and Friend's Committee. Each plays a crucial role in shaping our mission, ensuring financial sustainability, and fostering community engagement.

• Board of Directors: Our board members bring a wealth of experience and expertise in areas such as nonprofit governance, community activism, and education. They are responsible for strategic planning, oversight, and ensuring that we continue to meet the highest standards of excellence and integrity in fulfilling our mission.

• Advisory Board: Comprising esteemed professionals and community leaders, the Advisory Board serves as a valuable resource for strategic counsel, program development, and community outreach. Their insights and advice are invaluable as we navigate the complexities of social change work.

• Friend's Committee: This group is the backbone of our grassroots support, focused on fundraising, volunteer recruitment, and community outreach. They help spread the word about LEAD STL's programs and contribute to creating a more equitable and inclusive community.

Collectively, these teams enable us to serve an ever-growing number of students and communities, enhancing our effectiveness and expanding our reach. Their commitment to our cause helps us keep pushing forward, ensuring that LEAD STL remains a powerful force for change in the greater St. Louis region.
