Celebrating 10 Years of KEA Canada
In celebration of our 10th anniversary, KEA Canada offered our clients and friends the opportunity to watch a new film called UnCharitable virtually between Sunday, October 22 and Saturday, October 28, and to join us for a roundtable discussion about the film.
UnCharitable is a film that exposes limitations holding back nonprofits and empowers the sector to pursue its mission and create real impact—and access to free viewing of the film was our gift to you, the change-makers of our community.
The film provides:
Thought-provoking insights from some of the greatest minds in philanthropy
Deep discussion on the inequity of expectations and resources for non-profits
Radical new ideas about what it means to be charitable and how charity can function.

A roundtable discussion about the film was led by Kathy Arney was recorded via Zoom on Wednesday, October 25.
About the film
After three of the most dynamic and successful U.S. charities were shut down by conservative charity watchdogs, destroying lives and cutting off precious resources, many of the top influencers in the field knew something had to be done to overhaul the nonprofit sector.
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. 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.
Driven by the poignant, personal stories of Dan Pallotta, Steve Nardizzi, Dorri McWhorter, Scott Harrison, Edward Norton, Darren Walker and other prominent figures in philanthropy, 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.
