Join PhilMO at three locations for a special statewide screening and discussion of the controversial documentary film UnCharitable from 9AM to Noon CT on Friday, October 25, 2024.
Uncharitable uses the personal stories of Dan Pallotta, Steve Nardizzi, Dorri McWhorter, Scott Harrison, Edward Norton, Darren Walker, and philanthropic and nonprofit figures to make a call-to-action: we should radically rethink giving. Directed by Stephen Gyllenhaal, this feature-length film draws from Pallotta’s record-breaking TED Talk and book. Pallotta’s message across all platforms is that philanthropic choices are hurting the nonprofit sector and must be reimagined. He makes a call to reconsider employee compensation, risk tolerance, advertising, and returns on investment.
