The Foundation Board
The Foundation for Firelands is governed locally by a Board of Directors (comprised of 15 community leaders), which promotes autonomy and decision-making in the best interests of those served by the Firelands Regional Health System.
Under the leadership of its Board of Directors, The Foundation for Firelands provides a “donor-centered” approach where donor desires and philanthropic goals are respected and matched with the needs of the medical center.
