The Foundation is governed by a board of twenty-six Trustees. Twenty-two Trustees are appointed by the Grand Master for staggered five-year terms. The terms of five Trustees expire each year. Also, by virtue of their office, the Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Grand Senior and Junior Wardens serve as Trustees during their year in office. The Trustees meet, as required by the Foundation's constitution, at the Annual Meeting in March. These Annual Meetings are held each March prior to the upcoming Grand Lodge session. From among themselves they elect eleven Directors for staggered two-year terms. The Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master, by virtue of their office, also serve on the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors elects from among its members a president, executive vice-president, vice-president and secretary/treasurer for one year terms. The president also appoints trustees to serve on Executive, Finance & Investment, Long Range Planning, Educational, Human Resources, Nominating, Foundation Liason and Planned Giving Committees as well as Special Committees.
