Trilogy-Penn State

🌟 Alumni Spotlight: Molly Truszkowski (‘25) 🌟

Meet Molly Truszkowski, a 2025 Penn State graduate who majored in Biobehavioral Health with minors in Biology and Global Health. Molly is now continuing her passion for medicine as a Physician Assistant graduate student at King’s College in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and she hopes to specialize in pediatrics after graduation.

At Penn State, Molly knew from the start that she wanted to pursue a future in healthcare. Her love for traveling and her dedication to serving underserved communities made her Global Health minor one of the highlights of her undergraduate experience.

When asked about her favorite part of Penn State, Molly didn’t hesitate: THON. Trilogy played a huge role in her journey, surrounding her with passionate, supportive women who shared her commitment to helping children and families impacted by childhood cancer. As a DAR Chair, Molly grew as both a leader and a person — and the friendships she made in Trilogy will last a lifetime. ✨

Molly also shared her biggest advice for current Trilogy members:
“Get as involved as you can — in Trilogy events and THON events! One of the best things I did in college was IDC with one of my littles, Rachel. Fundraising together for a cause bigger than ourselves was truly an incredible experience.”

We are so proud of Molly and can’t wait to see her continue to make a difference in pediatric medicine. Keep shining! 💙🤍

Some of our THON chairs had the incredible opportunity to visit Penn State Hershey Children’s Hospital! They toured the hospital floors, spoke with the pediatric psychologist, met the pediatric music therapist, and even got a behind-the-scenes look at one of the labs. They also learned firsthand how Penn State THON fundraising directly supports the hospital and saw some of the amazing facilities made possible because of THON.

We’re so inspired by the impact THON continues to have on the kids and families at Penn State Hershey Children’s Hospital! 💛🎗
