About

Lauren Trunko

As Chief Development Officer at YWCA NorthEastern NY, I drive efforts to eliminate racism and empower women through fundraising, advocacy, program growth, and community partnerships. Over the past decade with YWCA, I’ve grown from Housing Coordinator to Director of Women and Family Services, and since 2022, into this leadership role.
Passionate about creating lasting social change, I’ve secured major grants, increased donor support, and built strategic partnerships across government, nonprofits, and business sectors. My mission: to position YWCA NorthEastern NY as a leading force for women’s rights and social justice in our region and beyond.
