We are thrilled with the overwhelming response this year to our IEF Micro-grants, presented in partnership with UPS!
We want to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to IEF’s Board of Directors who participated in this year’s adjudication. The Adjudication Team had the difficult task of determining the micro-grant recipients from the over 2000 applications we received.
