WAKEFIELD — Northeast Metro Tech Vocational Dean Russ Mezikofsky has been named to the board of directors of the Light Foundation — a non-profit that seeks to motivate and support youth. The Light Foundation was founded by retired New England Patriots offensive lineman Matt Light while he was still amid a football career that landed him in the New England Patriots Hall of Fame. The foundation seeks to motivate youths by taking them out of their usual environments, and helps them develop the skills, values and mindset they need to create meaningful and productive futures.
Dean Mezikofsky and Light have known each other personally for about a decade. Dean Mezikofsky, who is also a photographer, has photographed numerous events for The Light Foundation, which led Light to invite him to join the non-profit’s board of directors as the board sought to add educators to its membership.
