Trina Ward Fontaine

Executive Director/CEO
tfontaine@mountkiscofoodpantry.org

Trina joined the MKIFP in January 2023 as the organization’s first Executive Director. A graduate of Brown University, Trina started her career on Wall Street, first in mergers and acquisitions and syndicate equity at Merrill Lynch, followed by NASDAQ sales trading at Lehman Brothers, after completing her MBA from Columbia Business School.

In early 2002, Trina moved to Armonk with her family and while being a stay-at-home-mom, volunteered with the Junior League of Northern Westchester, eventually serving as Treasurer, President Elect and President on the Board of Directors. She also served on the MKIFP Board for two years, before returning to work in fund development at the Greater NY Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. As a senior development director, she gained expertise in advocacy, individual and major giving, special events, sponsorships, and board recruitment and development.

She has served on the Vestry of St. Stephens Episcopal Church in Armonk, is involved in their mission and outreach committee and recently helped relaunch the parish’s Treasures Thrift Shop after it shut down for several months during the pandemic. She enjoys laughing, hiking, exercising, and playing with her dog Hudson.
