As the founder of Project Intentional (projectharmony.com), Patricia has long prioritized reducing waste and making environmentally responsible choices across all organizational events, from community gatherings to initiatives like Love Can Store. That commitment reflects a broader belief: meaningful impact happens when intention shows up not just in mission statements, but in operations.
As Omaha’s sustainability landscape continues to grow, Patricia saw an opportunity to extend that mindset even further. In early 2025, she agreed to step into the role of Program Director for the Hillside Foundation Fund, a newly established nonprofit focused on expanding composting access, improving soil health, and strengthening the region’s circular food system.
While Project Intentional and the Hillside Foundation Fund operate independently, Patricia’s involvement in both reflects a shared philosophy—building systems that reduce waste, increase accessibility, and serve the community for the long term.
That vision will be on display Feb. 27 at the Hillside Foundation Fund’s inaugural gala at The Venue at Highlander. The event will celebrate local climate wins, honor leaders advancing Omaha’s circular economy, and raise funds to support school composting programs and other sustainability initiatives across the metro.
