An elected group of Trustees offer the expertise, guidance and assurance for the long-term success of UST.
In addition, a group of strategic partners continually lend their expertise to serve as an immediate resource for UST, and help the Trustees govern UST with the members’ best interests in mind. More than 65 Sponsors from national and state nonprofit organizations provide the backbone to UST’s leadership in the nonprofit community. Trained specialists from prominent service providers make up the administrative team, available to assist UST members with all of their account needs.
Executive Director Donna H. Groh is responsible for the effective management of UST. She manages relationships between UST and its service providers to ensure that they are meeting both contractual obligations and Trustee requirements.
