On Friday, September 23, Bay Street Theater will host a screening of “A Passion For Giving.” In a special anniversary screening, this feature documentary by Robin Baker Leacock offers an in-depth look into the inspiring side of human nature: the desire to give.
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion led by Baker featuring animal activist and actress Missy Hargraves, author and philanthropist Jean Shafiroff, and philanthropist and Founder of ACE New York Henry Buhl.
Through compelling interviews with people from different backgrounds worldwide about how individuals help other people, animals, and the planet, viewers are offered a glimpse into giving and how that makes us human.
The 2009 film features appearances with local philanthropists and cameos from many celebrities including Dan Aykroyd, Darryl McDaniels of Run DMC, Fran Lebowitz, Robert Thurman, and others.
The screening is at 7 PM. For tickets, visit baystreet.org.
