This #TrailblazerTuesday, we are excited to shine the spotlight on Lauren Y. Casteel, a trailblazer who will be retiring from her role as President and CEO of The Women's Foundation of Colorado in January. As the first woman of color to lead the foundation, Lauren has made a significant impact statewide with her strong commitment to gender, racial, and economic equity. She has an impressive track record, being the first person in Colorado to lead three foundations, and has nearly 30 years of leadership experience, demonstrating a lifelong dedication to inclusiveness. Lauren's remarkable journey includes leadership roles at the Temple Hoyne Buell Foundation, Hunt Alternatives Fund, and a successful 16-year tenure as president of The Denver Foundation.
