At FemFund, I am responsible for communication, mainly designing and publishing content on social media and contacting our community. I have a master’s degree in art from the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun, and I am currently studying at the University of Arts in Poznan. I grew up on queer activism, thanks to which I started working in the third sector. In the past, I organized Torun equality marches, participated in consultations on the bill on civil partnerships, and worked in Krytyka Polityczna, which I still love with all my heart. Currently, I am raising a pack of two cats and a dog with my partner. For pleasure I design, and I am currently returning to painting after several years of burnout. In the future, I would like to set up an open, queer cottage in the countryside with my friends. I come from Torun and divide my life between there and Warsaw.

At FemFund, I work in the grant program. I deal primarily with MiniGrants and relations with Grant recipients. I have been associated with the third sector all my professional life. I worked, among others, as a social skills and anti-discrimination trainer, project coordinator, organization manager, and animator. For me, working at FemFund is a return to the feminist commitment from which I started my activist-professional path and an opportunity to implement the values that are important to me. I live in Warsaw with my cat, Helena.

At FemFund, I am responsible for grants, especially the Feminist Emergency Service, and longer cooperation with groups after completing the MiniGrant. On a daily basis, I make sure that the money for feminism goes where it needs to go quickly and efficiently, and besides, I develop relationships with Grant recipients, that is, I spend a lot of time talking on the phone. I am also a member of the FemFund Board. My heart is halfway between activism and education– for many years I have worked as an anti-discrimination trainer and in education for diversity and equality, among others at the Polin Museum and the Center for Civic Education. For pleasure, I ride a bicycle, play the trumpet, and fantasize about the end of patriarchy. I am from Osiedle Przyjazn in Warsaw.

At FemFund, I work in the communications and fundraising team, although previously I spent several years working on grants and relations with grantees. I am a co-founder of the Fund and a member of the Board. I studied political science, and – post-graduate – Gender Studies and Non-violent Communication. I worked, among others, at the Batory Foundation, the Ocalenie Foundation, and the Center for Civic Education. I am also the author of materials on gender equality in education. I gained my activist experience in the March 8^th Women’s Consensus, co-organizing Manifa in Warsaw, as well as in collectives working for refugees and for access to abortion. I have also worked as an educator and animator of nature for several years. I spend my free time in the forest, in the garden or with a book. I come from Krosno.

At FemFund, I am responsible for, among other things, strategic international partnerships and I care for the development and financial security of the organization. I am the originator, author of the concept, co-founder, and member of the Fund’s Board. I am an intercultural psychologist, I am involved in the development of participatory and progressive philanthropy in Poland (FemFund), in Europe (FundAction) and in the world (Phenomenal Funds). In my free time, I regenerate, practice slow jogging, catch up on reading for pleasure, and draw strength from contact with nature. I was born in Baghdad, raised in the suburbs of Warsaw, and I have lived in Muranow in Warsaw for years.

At FemFund, I am responsible for administration, keeping documents in order and making sure that mundane matters quickly disappear from the team’s list of tasks. My entire professional life has been related to project management in business. In the Fund, I pursue my dream of acting in the third sector for matters that are the most important to me. Privately, I take care of the human-dog-cat pack and plant vegetables. I come from Sosnowiec and live near my beloved Warsaw.
