Biographical Note
Like many YMCA professionals, Harry Brunger began his association with the YMCA in his youth as a member of the Hi-Y Program in the Eaton/Barry County (Mich.) YMCA. He received degrees from Michigan State University and Yale University Divinity School. He worked with the United Church until he was recruited for service with the National Committee of the YMCAs of China.
Brunger spent the next 28 years working in YMCAs overseas. He was a YMCA fraternal secretary, serving in China, Hong Kong, and Lebanon. He also worked with YMCAs in Egypt, Greece, and Turkey. His overseas efforts focused on staff development, fundraising, training programs for youth workers, facility development, and social/economic development.
Brunger returned to the U.S. on the national staff and focused on international education. In 1980, he served as the head of the International Relations for the YMCA of the USA relating to programs in China, the Middle East, and New York City.
