DSAF's leaders represent a cross-section of our community and have a passion for our organization and those we serve. They work hard to ensure long-term sustainability of the organization and oversee that the funds raised directly affect our member-families.

DSAF Board of Directors typically meets the second Monday of each month. If you have questions regarding the organization, suggestions for the Board, or you would like to attend a board meeting, please contact info@dsafnebraska.org.
