Nada El-Eryan, Board Co-Chair

Growing up in the DC area, Nada El-Eryan was no stranger to political protests and social justice rallies. She credits her parents for instilling a deep understanding of justice and equity in her work. This translated into a career in the nonprofit sector, where she has worked for both domestic and international organizations focusing on community building, Palestine liberation, and resource sharing.      

Nada earned a B.A. in Political Science at Virginia Tech and has worked in the nonprofit sector for more than 19 years. Currently, Nada serves as the Director of Development Operations for Meals on Wheels America. Nada excels at project and grants management, creating and implementing programs that support community vitality, and the strategic planning necessary to bring big ideas to life. 

Nada previously served as a board member for the DC Palestinian Film and Arts Festival, bringing together her love for the arts, activism, and Palestine all in one place.
