Foundation President Jim Torgerson said the group works to promote healthier, more sustainable communities.
Beneficiaries included an array of charitable organizations, including food banks nationwide. The Elm City Robo Squad, a robotics competition program, and Evolutions, an after-school program at Yale’s Peabody Museum of Natural History, are also examples of recipients.
