Boston Rising’s Founding Board of Directors is a group of distinguished professionals who are deeply committed to clearing the way for the Rising Class. The Board leads the strategic decision-making of the organization, and board members underwrite all of Boston Rising’s administrative costs. As a result, every dollar donated to Boston Rising is invested directly in programs and initiatives that promote the Rising Class’s access to the right social connections, quality educational opportunities, and good jobs.
