Patricia Feilman

Patricia, Margaret’s younger sister, was born in 1925 and lived most of her adult life in Melbourne where her career included several years as the Executive Director of the esteemedĀ Potter Foundation. There, Patricia developed her interest in creative and high performing philanthropic practice and was an active member of Philanthropy Australia, the National peak body which leads the philanthropic sector in Australia. Patricia was particularly interested in conservation in addition to more general community services. Due to her strong connection to Victoria, some of the funds of the Foundation are used for causes in that State which were important to Patricia. She passed away in 2008.
