Board & Trustees
Community members helping guide the Y.
The YMCA of Greater Nashua is guided by volunteers who care deeply about this community. Our Board of Directors and Board of Trustees bring a wide range of experience and a shared commitment to helping the Y meet local needs. We're grateful for their time, wisdom and generosity.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors provides governance, policy direction and fundraising support. These community volunteers help set the Y's priorities and ensure good stewardship of its mission.
Board of Trustees
Established in 2013, the Board of Trustees connects longtime supporters, former directors and other volunteers with the Y's ongoing work. Trustees share institutional knowledge, offer perspective and serve as advocates for the Y.

Are the board and staff leadership the same?
No. The volunteer Board of Directors provides governance. Staff leadership manages day-to-day operations.
