Patronato Board Members
So many in our community and around the country are committed to the conservation, preservation, and maintenance of Mission San Xavier del Bac, including those who serve on Patronato’s Board of Directors. The nonprofit organization was founded in 1978, and with the guidance and support of Board members, combined with generous gifts from other individuals and organizations, Patronato has raised millions of dollars for our “Arizona jewel” and national treasure.
The current board members are highlighted below, along with members of our Founders Circle and our Associate members.
