Online Event – 10/27/22 – Maddie’s® Candid Conversation with Geraldine D’Silva - Maddie's Fund
2022-10-27 12:00 - 12:30 | Virtual
Growing up in India, Geraldine developed a deep understanding of equality and the human / animal bond. From an early age, she’d care for stray dogs in her neighborhood – feeding them and taking them to a local shelter. Later, that compassion expanded using her degree in Sociology which took her to remote villages to study the caste system and women’s empowerment, and then volunteering with those experiencing homelessness. An M.B.A. from the Edinburgh Business School gave her even greater skills, but as a foreigner both in Scotland and then in the U.S., finding meaningful work was a serious challenge. Join us to hear about her journey across the globe and what inspired her to be courageous in the face of adversity.
Maddie’s Fund Executive Leadership Team member Mary Ippoliti-Smith hosts the discussion and Q+A. Afterwards, continue the conversation with Geraldine on Maddie’s Pet Forum: https://maddies.fund/candidconvoGeraldineDSilva
The program will be recorded and made available on Maddie’s University for continuing education credit for both CAWA and NACA.

With work experience in three continents and over 10 years of operational leadership, Geraldine has a passion for building innovative community programs and strategic partnerships to bridge the gap between human and animal well-being, to increase access to care. She led a small non-profit through a merger & acquisition with one of the largest animal welfare organizations in the US, and over 8 years strategically helped integrate the services throughout the 140-year-old animal shelter, enabling it to pivot to the new community-centered model that is now unfolding. Brought up in India, she did her B.A. in Sociology which took her to remote villages to study the caste system and women’s empowerment. She has an M.B.A. from the Edinburgh Business School in Scotland and a background in research consultancy, advertising and branding.
