ISOC is not a trust.  It is a non-for-profit corporation.  

The term Trustee is often used in the U.S. for the members of a board
of not-for-profit organizations. When I was on the governing board of
my village, my title there was also Trustee.

PS: I happen to be quite familiar with the difference between a
not-for-profit corporation and a trust because I am also a trustee of
the IETF Trust, which really is a trust. It holds copyrights,
trademarks, and licenses for the benefit of the IETF.
