Ky Turman

Marketing Manager, Teacher Equity & Success at DonorsChoose

Ky works on the Marketing & Community team to raise awareness in classrooms around the country about the site's funding from companies and foundations, helping more teachers get what they need to create meaningful learning experiences for their students. As a former teacher and local organizer, she’s seen first-hand what it’s like when communities and schools have big ideas to boost student achievement but need more resources to make those ideas a reality. That experience motivates Ky every day in her work to help more teachers see their dreams come to life.

Ky graduated from Wake Forest University in 2017 with a degree in English Literature.
