Board of Trustees

Stewards of philanthropy & impact.

The Mill Neck Foundation Board of Trustees stewards the philanthropic arm of Mill Neck Center for the Deaf โ€” providing financial support that sustains our school, our adult services, our ministry, our international outreach, and the historic 86-acre campus that anchors our work.

About Our Board

Stewards of the mission.

Our trustees bring expertise in finance, fundraising, faith-based ministry, real estate stewardship, and strategic philanthropy. Together they ensure that every gift to Mill Neck is wisely deployed to maximize impact for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing community.

The Mill Neck Foundation Board operates under the governance umbrella of Lutheran Friends of the Deaf and works closely with senior leadership on annual giving, planned giving, capital projects, the Apple Festival, and international partnerships including Mill Neck International.
