The business, property and affairs of the Foundation are managed by the Board of Directors, which meets twice a year.
The Board of Directors is made up of twelve (12) Directors - seven (7) Institutional Directors and five (5) At-large Directors.  Each of the seven Institutional Members of the Foundation nominates for election one member of the Board of Directors who serves as its representative.  The number of At-large Directors shall always be fewer than the number of the Institutional Directors so that the representatives of the Institutional Members shall always constitute a majority of the Board of Directors.
In addition, the Presiding Bishop of the South Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church may be invited by the Board of Directors to be an Advisory Director with vote. All Directors serve without compensation except for reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the Board member's responsibilities.
