WARREN -- Christopher J. Malanga has been appointed director of communications for the United Way of Trumbull County.

Education: He is a Bowling Green State University graduate and lives in Warren with his wife, Nicole.
"We look forward to utilizing Chris' experience and abilities in the furtherance of our United Way's mission to increase the capability of people to care for one another," said Thomas J. Krysiek, president and chief professional officer of the agency.
United Way of Trumbull County, serving the local community with planning, allocation and fund-raising for human services organizations since 1923, is an independent, non-profit organization governed by a volunteer board of directors.
