Oct. 11, 6:30pm, Twin. Presented by KW Community Foundation
What happens when capitalism and charity intersect? The Invisible Heart tracks the birth of one of the fastest growing social innovations in modern history: social impact bonds. An unorthodox marriage between government services and private-sector investments, this burgeoning financial model promises to solve society’s most complex problems from crime to homelessness—but is it delivering? Set in Canada, the U.S. and the U.K, this compelling documentary follows the unlikely people banding together to battle social inequality.
The post-film Q & A will be moderated by KWCF President & CEO Elizabeth Heald and feature panelists:
Tim Jackson - President & CEO, SHAD Network
Jason Sukhram - Manager, Capital Advisory Services, MaRS Centre for Impact Investment
Julie Wright - Executive Director, Waterloo Global Science Initiative (WGSI)
Doors open at 6:10pm
KWCF would like to thank their National Outreach Partners for their continued support: NUPGE, CCPA, MaRS Centre for Impact Investment, Community Foundations of Canada, McConnell Foundation, Ontario Media Development Corporation, and Catherine Donnelly Foundation.
