Board of Directors
The Historic Gloria Dei Preservation Corporation is an all-volunteer board. We do not have any paid staff. Our board members have been recruited for their skill and talent, giving us a collective wide-ranging expertise. We have six historians, three graphic designers/web developers, an architectural conservator, an archivist, an architect, an arborist, an event planner, a social media expert, an attorney, two business process experts, an investor, a certified tour guide, and an accountant. Six of our board members are small business owners in the Philadelphia area.
As a group, we work collaboratively to identify preservation projects, plan programs, and execute fundraising events. All of our trustees are actively engaged in committee work related to specific projects. Our advisors consult with us on project planning and execution on an as-needed basis.
