Join our ION ContributION Run on Sunday 26 May in Noida, India to benefit children’s education
At ION, we’re committed to making the world a better place. ContributION, our corporate social responsibility program, lets us express that commitment by making a positive change in our local communities and around the world.
Through ContributION, we’re delighted to partner with Coach Ravinder Singh, and collectively announce the second annual ION ContributION Run on 26 May 2019.
Through this event, we hope to:
