Don’t miss the next episode of Maddie’s^® Candid Conversation with Geraldine D’Silva, former Director of Community Veterinary Services at San Diego Humane Society on October 27, 2022 at 12p PT/ 3p ET!

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 for further care.  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.  A Master of Business Administration (MBA) 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 for an inspiring look at her journey across the globe and learn how her unique approach to adversity helped change the lives of animals and the people who love them.

Join us for a conversation with Geraldine and Maddie’s Fund Executive Leadership Team member Mary Ippoliti-Smith. Afterwards, continue the conversation on Maddie’s^® Pet Forum.

The program will be recorded and made available on Maddie’s^® University for continuing education credit for both CAWA and NACA. Register now!
