Opportunity to view the UnCharitable Film from Jill Singer Graphics: April 1- April 8

Many of you have heard about the documentary film UnCharitable, an epic cinematic behind-the-scenes report on the business and battlegrounds of nonprofits. It is based on the ever-popular TED Talk (and book) by Dan Pallotta.

In an effort to propagate critical insight as to why giving unrestricted funds to charities is so important, Jill Singer is sponsoring a week-long virtual screening of this film with the hope that many will watch and share it — with your boards, donors, members, staff, clients and friends. It is not yet available in any theatre or on a streaming platform. You can watch the trailer here.

Sign up here to pay $5 per viewer (to help cover distribution costs). You will then be directed to an information and registration page. Upon registration, you will be able to stream the film any time between April 1, 12:01am - April 8, 11:59pm EST. Invitation code: UJS-JILL. Please feel free to share!
