FOUNDATION MEMBERS

SAF is a membership corporation, an entity not focused on profit generation. Historically, the members were comprised of past Presidents of Student Agencies, Inc and were responsible for electing the Board of Trustees and ensuring the advancement of our mission. 

As the Student Agencies family has grown, membership has expanded beyond the dedicated group of SAI Presidents to include former eLab students and other individuals who have made substantial contributions to the SAF mission. 

Each year, the Board of Trustees may nominate individuals to become members. Selection is based on the individual’s dedicated and sustained contribution to both SAF and Cornell as well as their ability to guide and inspire the lives of current students.
