Dr. Neal Barnard is honored to be the 2023 recipient of the Winsome Constance Kindness Medal.

About the Winsome Constance Kindness Medal: Winsome Constance Kindness was founded by Philip Wollen. At age 34 he was Vice-President of Citibank. The Financial Press named him in the “Top 40 Brightest and Best” executives in Australia.

During his travels, by age 40 he’d witnessed cruelty so egregious he decided to do all he could to alleviate suffering, and give away everything he owned, with warm hands, and die broke. He jokes “So far, we are right on budget!”

Today, he is a “Venture Capitalist for Good Causes,” supporting some 500 mission-critical projects in 40+ countries. Each year he awards this prestigious Gold Medal to an individual who has devoted their lives to humanitarian causes. The 2023 award recipient is Neal Barnard, MD, founder and president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.
