Board Members
Executive Committee
A Northern California native, Rehan S. Alvi currently serves as President of the Board. Rehan first moved to the area three decades ago when his parents fell in love with the natural beauty of El Dorado Hills and decided that it would be the perfect place to raise their young family. Rehan attended local schools, played sports in city leagues and spent many years as a member of the local Boy Scouts troop. After high school, Rehan left the area for college and work.
While attending medical school he met his wife, Rubina, and after graduation they spent some time living in San Francisco and Southern California but ultimately decided to move back to El Dorado Hills to be closer to family and friends.
Rehan has been a member of MCF since 2018 and is thrilled to be a part of this very special community. Prior to serving as President, Rehan served as the Facilities Secretary for two years. In addition to serving on MCF’s Board, he also serves as General Secretary of MCF’s Cub Scouts Pack 786, volunteers as a Webelos Den Leader, and serves on the board of the Shifa Health Center.
During his tenure on the board, Rehan looks forward to bringing a fresh infusion of energy and ideas to all MCF programs and helping lay the foundation for MCF’s future expansion.
In his free time, Rehan enjoys hiking, sailing, camping, tinkering with technology and spending time with his family and friends.
