Board Farewells and Warm Welcomes

We invite you to join us in expressing our thanks to two “graduating” board members and extending a warm welcome to three new members!

Year after year, the Huron County Community Foundation has an impact in our community thanks to many caring people who cultivate our connections and contribute to our growth. We are fortunate to have counted on two departing board members—Aaron Kuhl and Rob Zeldenrust —among them. We sincerely appreciate the two of you and send you off with our gratitude as you “graduate” from the Board.

As Aaron and Rob depart, we are pleased to welcome an cohort of three new board members to guide our organization and community impact. These newest board members bring a diversity experiences as well as a shared commitment to the well-being of Huron County. We look forward to the way their various perspectives and strengths will add to the wisdom and leadership of our current board, increasing our organization's ability to fulfill our purpose of improving the quality of life in our region.
