Board of Directors

HDF Board Chair, John March, of Citibank speaks at the HDF Annual Breakfast Benefit in Stamford, CT.
Strong partnerships have played a key role in HDF’s work. Our committed board members, together with the generous support of partner banks, foundations, individuals and municipalities have helped HDF leverage over $312 million that can be seen in hundreds of affordable housing apartments financed and thousands of new homeowners assisted in Connecticut.
Our board represents a large cross section of the banking and professional community, dedicated to our cause. Many of our board members are very active in various community organizations, such as the United Way, Ability Beyond Disability, and the YMCA.
