GIVING MATTERS

Momentous Opportunity

An anonymous benefactor couple helped IonE share ideas, information and inspiration about solutions to the world's biggest environmental challenges by providing support for our award-winning Momentum (now Ensia) print and online magazine and event series. In addition to gifts of time and talent by some of their executives, the event series also benefited from significant sponsorship support from the General Mills Company.
