Patrycja Warda has spent her career in the non-profit sector. She worked for five years at the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous, where she helped the organization distribute over $2 million in support to rescuers around the world, while learning the ins and outs of event planning and non-profit administration.
In 2004, Patrycja was hired at Bottomless Closet, a small NYC-based non-profit supporting women entering the workforce. In the 12+ years she was at Bottomless Closet, she advanced to the roles of Program and Finance Manager and then Program Director as the organization grew. Patrycja was able to wear all of the non-profit hats at various points in her tenure including strategic planning, grant-writing, program development, and organizational management.
Patrycja is an active member of the Alliance of Career Development Non-Profits, a network of organizations that serve women and men as they join or reenter the workforce. While she does not have a theater background (she majored in Economics in college), she does enjoy a good show. Her favorite musicals include Fiddler on the Roof and Wicked.
