Abigail E. Disney On Women, War and Peace

Forget everything you learned in childhood. Disney isn’t all about fairy princesses and waiting for that man to save you (or the world).

There’s another way. Despite the famous surname, Abigail E. Disney is doing it for herself and during her first visit to Australia, the influential US humanitarian, social activist film-maker and member of the innovative philanthropic venture, Women Moving Millions, aims to inspire us to do the same.

She’s a guest of the Australian Women’s Donor Network. Haven’t heard of them?  They’re all about connections – linking up the generous movers and shakers within the local philanthropic community with projects that invest in women and girls.

Philanthropy Masterclass…Keynote Speaker at a Gala Dinner and Film Night, featuring clips from her latest screen outing, Women, War and Peace, that is currently showing to US audiences – Disney’s doing it all across Melbourne and Sydney. Well, she’s already been to The Hague. If demystifying non-profit strategies is the new black, Disney is the Ann Wintour of giving in style.

Melbourne – 29-30 November; Sydney – 1-2 December 2011
