Fistula Foundation is proud to invite you to this private event to hear from a champion of the world’s poor.
This year, Peter Singer is retiring from his tenured post at Princeton University. This event offers a special “last chance” opportunity to hear from Singer in an intimate setting at one of New York’s most famous venues. Join us for a lively discussion between Peter Singer and Kate Grant, moderated by the award-winning radio host and author Brooke Gladstone.
Join us for light, vegan refreshments at 7 o’clock. Event begins promptly at 7:30 p.m.
Peter Singer is a world-renowned ethicist and the author of The Life You Can Save. For years, he has written and lectured on the idea that people in wealthy countries have a moral obligation to act—and to act effectively—to end the suffering of people in low-income countries.
Kate Grant is CEO of Fistula Foundation, the global leader in providing fistula treatment. She scaled the organization from supporting a single hospital in Ethiopia to funding sites in nearly 30 countries.
Brooke Gladstone is the host of public radio’s Peabody Award–winning On the Media. She’s also the author of The Influencing Machine, which The Atlantic listed as one of the “10 Masterpieces of Graphic Nonfiction.”
In his best-selling book The Life You Can Save, Peter Singer asserts that charities operating effectively in low-resource countries—where poverty and its effects are most pronounced—are best positioned to make the largest impact. Fistula Foundation is proud to be featured in his book as an effective charity, and to be recognized by The Life You Can Save organization as a Top Charity.
