UNCHARITABLE SCREENING

Community Matters screening of UnCharitable: Monday, March 4 at 7:00 PM

  • Panelists: Director Stephen Gyllenhaal and Kathryn O'Neal-Dunham, CEO, Philanthropy New York
  • Moderator: Laura Rossi, WCF Executive Director, Westchester Community Foundation

In a powerful call to action, UnCharitable demands that charities be freed from the traditional sackcloth-and-ashes constraints, so that they can truly change the world. Led by Dan Pallotta, whose record-breaking TED Talk on the subject has inspired leading philanthropists and changemakers, this feature-length documentary directed by Stephen Gyllenhaal exposes the dark side of philanthropy and introduces a radical new way of giving. 

UnCharitable delivers an emotional journey that moves, persuades, and inspires its audience to change the way we think about giving. No topic is more crucial and timely as we confront an increasingly unstable world with the growing revelation that we are all interconnected and that our fate lies in how much we are willing to invest in positive change.
