Poverty, Inc. Screening
2018-02-26 19:00 | Roland Fine Arts Center, 2800 Palmyra Road, Hannibal, 63401, United States
Hannibal-LaGrange University will be screening the award-winning documentary Poverty, Inc. on Monday, February 26, at 7 pm in the Roland Fine Arts Center. Michael Matheson Miller, the director and producer will introduce the film and field questions after its conclusion.
View Trailer
On Tuesday, February 27, Miller will give a lecture on issues raised in the film at 7 pm in the L.A. Foster Student Center. Both the movie and lecture are free, family-friendly, and open to the public.
Poverty, Inc. is a thought-provoking film that challenges views on charitable giving, particularly in third-world countries. Drawing from over 200 interviews and filmed in 20 countries, Poverty, Inc. unearths an uncomfortable side of charity and foreign aid that can no longer be ignored. From shoes to international adoptions, solar panels to agriculture subsidies, the film challenges its viewers to ask the tough question, “Could I be part of the problem?”
Previous viewers have described the documentary as “eye-opening.” Miles Mullin, vice president of academic administration at HLGU says, “For those who truly have a heart to help impoverished people around the world, Poverty, Inc. will change the way you approach that challenge.”
In addition to being the director and producer of Poverty, Inc., Miller is a research fellow at the Acton Institute, a think tank focused on the intersection between market economics and moral philosophy and theology. Miller writes and speaks extensively on issues of development, political economy, religion, and culture. He previously taught philosophy and political science at Ave Maria College in Nicaragua and was the chair of the philosophy and theology department. His lecture on February 27 will focus on the relationship between crony capitalism, cycles of dependency, and foreign aid.
Miller holds graduate degrees in philosophy, international development, and international business. He has lived and traveled in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. He has been featured on FOX Business, CNBC, Russ Roberts, and numerous radio shows. He has been published in The New York Post, The Washington Times, The LA Daily News, The Detroit News, and Real Clear Politics.
This educational and enlightening event is sponsored by a grant from the Charles Koch Foundation. For more information about the event, contact Rebecca Sneed, institutional advancement and public relations assistant at 573-629-3118, or via email at rebecca.sneed@hlg.edu.

Hannibal-LaGrange University will hold an Arbor Day celebration on Friday, April 6 at 10 am to plant a tree and celebrate being a Tree Campus USA®.
Tree Campus USA is a national program created in 2008 by the Arbor Day Foundation to honor colleges and universities for effective campus forest management and to engage staff and students in conservation goals.

Currently there are 254 campus across the United States with this recognition.
This year’s Arbor Day ceremony will also include a reading of an Arbor Day Proclamation. This proclamation will be read every year on Arbor Day as part of HLGU’s application to remain a Tree Campus USA. In addition, Dr. Allen, along with Betty Anderson and a representative from the Hannibal Tree Board, will speak at the ceremony.
For more information on the Arbor Day Celebration, or on how to become a supporter of HLGU’s tree campaign, contact Betty Anderson at 573-629-3093, or via email at banderson@hlg.edu.

Leadership and The Church is a church administration seminar being held on Saturday, September 22 at Hannibal-LaGrange University for local church leaders. In a world facing a new church scandal almost daily, there has never been a better time to increase awareness and knowledge in this crucial area of church administration.

This seminar seeks to educate, equip, and encourage church leaders. With three experienced speakers, church leaders will be taught on church administration topics so they can strengthen and advance the mission of the Church. The speakers this year are: Dr. Neil Franks, President & Treasurer of the Missouri Baptist Foundation, Dr. Glenn A. Miller, founder & CEO of Miller Management, and Vaughn Baker, President of Strategos International.
Past participants of this seminar have given positive reviews, saying, “Great seminar and great knowledgeable speakers,” and “I thought this year’s array was spot-on! This was just very well done.” Miller Management, a nonprofit accounting firm, has been providing administrative training to churches since 2003.
Hannibal-LaGrange University, located at 2800 Palmyra Road, Hannibal, Missouri 63401, will host the event. Registration begins at 8:00 am. Continental breakfast will be available. The speakers will present from 8:30 am to noon. From noon to 1:00 pm there will be lunch and a panel discussion with the speakers and presenting partners.
