Donna Lunn

Donna Lunn is a Canadian activist in support of rural and agricultural organizations in Canada. She is a recipient of the Canadian Commemorative Medal.

A partner in a family dairy operation, Donna Lunn was a past president of the Elgin Federation of Agriculture and a current board member of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA), with many years’ experience both provincially and nationally in leadership positions in rural and agricultural organizations.

Her extensive community involvement led her to receiving the Canadian Commemorative Medal in 1992 "in recognition of significant contribution to compatriots, community and to Canada." Her most recent recognition was a provincial award, “Leading Women, Building Communities” in 2006.

Lunn's current projects include rural technology and broadband. She facilitated and wrote the proposals for IT and broadband for the Elgin Community Futures Development Corporation (CFDC) after an intensive six-month research phase in 2000. Elgin has been the only community to now have received BRAND (Broadband for Rural and Northern Development), COBRA (Connect Ontario Broadband for Regional Access) and COPSC (Connect Ontario Partnering for Smart Communities). Aggregating community resources resulted in a total of more than $4.8 million for these projects for Elgin and St. Thomas. Lunn was the Project Manager for Elgin Connects and Community Development Officer for the Elgin CFDC. She is also a board member of St. Thomas-Elgin Second Stage Housing, an not-for=profit, charitable agency which provides transitional housing and support services for women, with or without children, leaving abusive relationships.
