Our Board of Directors represents the main governing body of the organization.

Committees

LDS Earth Stewardship is governed by two types of committees: Standing Committees (which exist on a permanent basis) and Ad Hoc Committees (which exist on a temporary, as-needed basis).

We would love your participation if you would like to volunteer to help serve on these committees. The time commitment is flexible and the length of your service is up to you. You do not necessarily need to live along the Wasatch Front to volunteer. Many meetings are conducted using teleconferencing.

To volunteer for a committee or to learn more about committee service, please email .
