In part one of this three part series, we explore how ScottsMiracle-Gro and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation partnered with Columbus City Schools and The Ohio State University Extension for a gardening program, which led to students trying new, fresh foods and recipes.

The magic that grows as kids discover gardening

Our purpose to GroMoreGood takes many forms. One of those special moments happened with Columbus City Schools in Ohio, where the magic of a single idea blossomed beyond its original intent and became something bigger, something greater. The growth journey of the Columbus City Schools program epitomizes GroMoreGood. A new generation of kids is developing a lifelong connection to the earth.

The idea 
Early in her career, school teacher Katie Young had a writing assignment for her students that was based on a simple question: Do you know where food comes from? Not one of the students answered that it comes from the earth. Katie knew this had to change. 

In 2018, the Columbus City Schools Farm to School program was born in partnership with ScottsMiracle-Gro, The Scotts Miracle-Gro Foundation and The Ohio State University Extension. Teachers were given tools and Miracle-Gro supplies to teach kids how to create, tend to and harvest gardens full of fresh vegetables.

Starting to grow 
The initial group of teachers embraced the program, and students did, too. Soon, more schools and teachers were brought into the program, and it started delivering results that exceeded all original expectations.

Benefits beyond expectations 
Students experienced mental health benefits from touching the dirt and taking care of the plants on a regular basis. 

High school students talked about the therapeutic aspect of gardening and the way working with plants brought them a sense of peace. 

Another group of students created ways to invite the community to participate in the gardens, which went beyond the classroom. 

While elementary school students discovered that fresh foods are delicious, sometimes on their own and sometimes when added to a smoothie or pizza!

Originally posted by Action Against Hunger on March 5th, 2025

JERUSALEM, Israel, March 5, 2025 /3BL/ – The decision to suspend the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, announced on Sunday, endangers the lives of millions of Palestinians in Gaza and threatens to reverse the progress that has been made since the ceasefire was declared on January 19, Action Against Hunger warned. After the ceasefire began, an average of nearly 300 trucks per day entered through several crossings. While still far short of what was agreed in the ceasefire and what is required to meet basic needs, the entry of goods, food and fuel enabled operations of health, water and sanitation infrastructure, as well as the movement of humanitarian personnel in parts of Gaza where access had previously been limited.

Now, Action Against Hunger is calling for the resumption of humanitarian aid into Gaza and for a lasting ceasefire to allow the continued flow of aid, the reconstruction of Gaza, and the return of remaining hostages.

“Fifteen months of displacement and conflict have left most people dependent on humanitarian aid. The agreement in Gaza had, until Sunday, facilitated more goods coming in,” explained Natalia Anguera, Head of Middle East Operations at Action Against Hunger, a nonpartisan international nonprofit. “For example, more food was being allowed in Gaza, and this allowed us, before Sunday, to increase aid to places we couldn’t access before. Action Against Hunger was planning to bring much needed food aid into Gaza next week to support a community kitchen based in Gaza City, which was going to assist over 4,000 people during the month of Ramadan, but the current restriction prevents us from doing so.”

Consequences of the suspension of humanitarian aid inflows

The suspension of aid threatens to reverse recent gains, putting the lives of millions of people at risk and making the work of humanitarian organisations even more difficult.

“It’s going to be very, very hard,” explained an Action Against Hunger worker in Gaza whose name was withheld for safety reasons. “Although Action Against Hunger had already considered this possible scenario, it is going to be difficult to readjust our plans and our supply work based on these new restrictions, which also mean more people will be in need.”

The suspension of humanitarian aid inflows are causing a significant increase in the price of goods on the local market. “We have to take into account that most people don’t have jobs, so they don’t have a regular income. Purchasing power is still very limited. Action Against Hunger runs cash assistance programs, which provide immediate relief and help stimulate and rebuild the local economy. Those programs are much more efficient when prices are lower, and prices had come down a bit before Sunday,” the Action Against Hunger worker explained.

Humanitarian needs remain enormous. Sanitation in the north is one example. “The entire population that was previously overcrowded in the south is now back to being overcrowded, only in the north, which has nearly no buildings left standing. The population has to move back into camps and there is no space and no infrastructure to contain exposure to disease. A few days ago, it rained heavily, causing the infrastructure to fail and absorb the water, causing stagnant water and sewage to flourish. Exposure to disease and pollution remains one of the most important problems to respond to,” the Action Against Hunger staff member said.

“Action Against Hunger continues to distribute water, tents, and hygiene kits. All of this continues to be an absolute priority. If water, food and shelter were needed during the conflict, they are still needed today,” Natalia Anguera said.

Action Against Hunger in Gaza

Action Against Hunger has been assisting the population in Gaza for more than 20 years. Responding to the escalating crisis, our teams have mobilized to provide hot meals and fresh and dry food, distribute hygiene kits, connect people with shelters, and truck clean water into communities. Since the start of the conflict, under restricted access and frequent blackouts, Action Against Hunger has assisted more than one million people in Gaza and the West Bank.

Cummins

‘The Planet and Me’ webinar series features expert conversations packed with actionable insights to drive meaningful change. When it comes to change, and change leadership, NextMapping™ founder Cheryl Cran is the authority. Whether you are a manager, engineer or sales professional, Cran says the key to successful innovation is confronting your own resistance to change.

With this knowledge plus conscious communication and personal accountability, leaders can transform workplace challenges into opportunities. While AI and automation adoption continues to accelerate, Cran argues that focusing on individuals — not tech — is the key to leading successful change.

Here is her three-pronged, human-centered approach we discussed in our conversation:

Change resistance is not just something to be overcome. It is something to be confronted with and understood. Treating regular one-on-ones as more than just check-ins is one opportunity for leaders to understand the human dynamics behind change resistance and to build trust through conscious communication.Change leadership creates an environment where everyone contributes to change. Cran says today’s effective leader is not an autocrat but a mentor who asks powerful questions and genuinely invests in others’ growth. As Cran noted, the best mentors are not threatened by others’ potential — they are excited by it, even if it means their mentee might one day become their boss.Shared leadership is possible once change resistance is addressed. In a traditional hierarchical model, the leader is supposed to have all the answers. However, shared leadership empowers everyone to become a change leader regardless of title.

These philosophies require leaders to be thoughtful about when to lead from the front, when to step back, and when to pivot. The things that worked for me and my leadership style 10 years ago, for example, were vastly different from the approaches I use today.

With the growth and transformational journey of Cummins Inc. in mind, I have pivoted from a focus on corporate adaptability to a focus on people — a human-centered approach. Watch the full webinar to gain insights on how to cultivate change and adaptability in individuals, while leading with humanity in times of change.

As the world races toward a greener future, innovative solutions that empower individuals to take climate-friendly actions are more critical than ever. One such solution is Future, a pioneering payment platform designed to incentivize and reward consumers for making sustainable choices.

On episode 66 of RENEWables, we sat down with Future, to explore how the company is reshaping the way people think about sustainability—by making it both accessible and financially rewarding.

Gamifying Sustainability with FutureCoins

At its core, Future seeks to motivate behavior change by offering tangible benefits for reducing carbon emissions. The platform connects users with a network of over 50,000 brands, transit agencies, and utilities, creating a seamless experience where eco-conscious decisions translate into real-world rewards. From free subway rides in New York City to a loyalty program that tracks carbon impact, Future is proving that sustainability can be both engaging and economically beneficial.

FutureCoins, a unique feature of the platform, gamify sustainable actions by rewarding users for completing green missions. This approach not only makes eco-friendly habits more fun but also encourages long-term behavioral shifts toward lower-carbon lifestyles.

Collaboration is Key to Impact

A major takeaway from our conversation is the power of strategic partnerships. By working alongside businesses, government agencies, and service providers, Future ensures that sustainable options are not just available—but rewarding. The platform’s success in distributing incentives through established networks demonstrates how collaborative efforts can accelerate climate action at scale.

Empowering Consumers for a Greener Tomorrow

At a time when sustainability is often seen as costly or complex, Future is flipping the script. By making climate-conscious choices financially advantageous, the company is proving that individuals can play a significant role in reducing emissions while saving money.

To learn more about how Future is driving change and how you can be part of this movement, check out the full RENEWables podcast episode. It just might inspire you to rethink your daily spending habits and take meaningful steps toward a greener, more sustainable future.

Key Points

Elona Dunaway, originally from Albania, moved to the U.S. in 2000 and became a U.S. citizen a decade later, inspired by her parents’ teachings on freedom and independence.She joined Marathon Petroleum in 2013 and now leads the Economics & Planning Team at the Galveston Bay refinery in Texas.Outside of work, Dunaway values family, travel and continuous learning, striving to instill the same values in her children.

For Elona Dunaway, life has always been about embracing change, chasing opportunity and making a lasting impact through her career, in her community and at home.

Born and raised in Albania, a country in Southeastern Europe, Dunaway dreamed of coming to the U.S. for as long as she could remember. In 2000, as a junior in high school, that dream became a reality. A decade later, she reached another milestone, becoming a U.S. citizen, a moment that reminded her how far she had come.

“Growing up in the early ’90s, my dad would talk to me about freedom of speech, democracy, human rights and peaceful protests,” she said. “Albania was emerging from a decades-long dictatorship, and those conversations shaped my view of the world at a young age.”

Her mother, a high school biology and agriculture teacher, also instilled invaluable lessons that would guide her throughout life.

“She took on a greenhouse business to improve our living conditions,” said Dunaway. “She showed me the power of independence, purpose and putting family first. I hope to leave a similar mark on my own children.”

Building a career at Marathon Petroleum

Dunaway joined Marathon Petroleum in 2013 as a Tech Service Engineer at the Detroit, Michigan, refinery, but her connection to the company began years earlier. From 2009 to 2012, she worked as a process design engineer on Marathon Petroleum’s Detroit Heavy Oil Upgrade Project (DHOUP).

Her career has taken her across the country, from Southern California to Alaska, Kentucky, Michigan and Ohio. Now, she leads the Economics & Planning Team at the Galveston Bay refinery in Texas, overseeing production plans, supporting product movements and optimizing value chain operations.

“Our team works closely with operations, maintenance, tech service, trading teams and MPLX (Marathon Petroleum’s midstream component) scheduling to ensure we’re leveraging our assets and connectivity with pipelines and dock logistics,” she said. “Every day, we move over a million barrels of feedstocks and products.”

While the work is fast-paced and complex, Dunaway thrives on teamwork and shared purpose.

“Working toward a common goal keeps me going, especially on long and demanding days,” she said. “I’ve been fortunate to work with incredible people throughout my career, like my team in Kenai, Alaska, who showed me what it means to come together, overcome challenges and create a supportive work environment.”

Her ability to solve problems, lead teams and drive results has earned her the respect of colleagues across the company.

“Elona has an incredible talent for spotting challenges and opportunities, bringing in the right people and making things better,” said Brian David, Lead Planning & Optimization Engineer at Marathon Petroleum. “Her drive is inspiring, and we’re lucky to have her.”

Lessons Learned & Words of Advice

Dunaway’s journey has taught her valuable lessons, both in her career and personal life. One of the biggest surprises was how much working at Marathon Petroleum heightened her awareness of safety, not just at the refinery, but at home.

“When I bought my first home in 2009, I immediately wanted to know where the isolation valves for the water and natural gas were,” she said with a laugh. “I started keeping up with furnace maintenance, filter changes and contractor standards, things I had never thought about before.”

Her advice for those just starting out: work hard, ask questions and always seek to understand the “why” behind what you do.

“Don’t be too hard on yourself. Learn from challenges, grow through experience and always be a good teammate,” she said. “Having the right people in your corner makes all the difference. The encouragement I received early on shaped me into the leader I am today.”

Dunaway’s leadership is built on accountability, collaboration and a commitment to finding real solutions.

“I will always push myself and those around me to keep learning, to keep trying new things, because I truly believe every challenge is a chance to grow and see the world differently.”

“She takes ownership, brings people together and follows through to make a lasting impact,” said Cindy Meyn, Area Team Leader at the Catlettsburg refinery.

“I’m grateful to call her a friend and colleague because she challenges me, offers valuable perspective and is always there to listen,” said Josh Brand, Global Value Chain Optimization Director at Marathon Petroleum.

• Family: Husband Kyle; Daughter Elle, 9; Son William, 7

• Hobbies: Traveling, Food, Snowboarding

• Fun Fact: I speak 3 languages – Albanian, Italian and English

Life Beyond Work

Outside of work, Dunaway’s world revolves around family, travel and making memories with loved ones. She and her husband Kyle, who also works at the company as an Advanced Senior Refining Engineer, first crossed paths on Marathon’s project in Detroit, where Kyle was already working.

“The first time we met there was something about her, an aura that was just undeniable,” Kyle said. “A couple of months later she joined Marathon and the rest is history.”

Watching Elona grow professionally has been inspiring for Kyle, who describes her as driven and unafraid to challenge the status quo. But what he finds even more rewarding is seeing her thrive as a mom to their two children.

“I’ve always been her biggest cheerleader, but lately, I think our kids are giving me a run for my money,” Kyle said. “Especially our 9-year-old, who’s already dishing out career advice to Mom.”

No matter the role, whether mom, engineer or leader, Elona carries forward the drive her parents instilled in her, always pushing herself and those around her to grow, improve and make a difference.

“I will always push myself and those around me to keep learning, to keep trying new things, because I truly believe every challenge is a chance to grow and see the world differently.”

Cory Everington is on a mission to bring dark web criminals to justice. Her lifelong pursuit of knowledge precedes her as she works to deliver critical intelligence to key government agencies at CACI today. 

Since earning a Master of Science in analytics from North Carolina State University in 2016, Everington has taken on diverse roles, uncovering critical insights along the way. She draws inspiration from Hope Jahren’s memoir Lab Girl, which speaks to perseverance in the face of challenges.

“Jahren’s story of overcoming barriers and staying true to her passion for discovery has deeply resonated with me,” she said. “Her perseverance reminds me that progress in science and technology isn’t just about intelligence or skill—it’s about persistence, curiosity, and a profound sense of purpose, qualities that continue to guide me today.”

That same mindset has shaped Everington’s career as a technology and national security leader at CACI. As head of the DarkBlue Intelligence Group, she leads efforts to equip law enforcement, the Department of Defense, and the Intelligence Community with precision tools to dismantle criminal networks.

“Our work isn’t just about finding data—it’s about using it to stop human trafficking, terrorism, and financial crimes,” she noted. “Every insight we uncover has the potential to save lives.”

With a team-first approach, Everington champions AI, cybersecurity, and intelligence solutions that serve a greater mission. She fosters a culture of curiosity, knowing that innovation thrives when people embrace challenges rather than shy away from them.

“I encourage my team to approach obstacles with curiosity because that’s where true innovation happens,” she said. “The most transformative ideas come from those willing to take risks, learn from failure, and step into the unknown with confidence.”

Her ability to identify opportunities and turn potential into progress has led to game-changing advancements. In 2024, she spearheaded the launch of DarkPursuit’s Image Blur and CluesAI, two breakthrough tools designed to shield analysts from the psychological toll of dark web investigations. With cybersecurity burnout at an all-time high, she saw an urgent need for change.

Her team’s latest innovation, CluesAI, revolutionized the way intelligence is gathered. Within just 50 days, CluesAI was created to deliver intelligence reports that link anonymous data to identifiable entities across dark and open web data. The tool has proven transformative, substantially reducing barriers for analysts, and enabling them to generate complex insights more efficiently. 

Beyond her technical achievements, Everington is a dedicated mentor and force for positive change in her community. She partners with UVA and Virginia Tech to recruit women in STEM and regularly connects with CACI’s 300+ interns, providing them with invaluable early-career insights. 

“I tell all young professionals I encounter the best piece of advice I’ve received: Get comfortable with being uncomfortable,” she said. “Growth doesn’t happen in comfort zones—it happens when we take on challenges that force us to adapt.” 

Her commitment extends to nonprofit work. Under her leadership, DarkBlue provides no-cost training and access to five organizations fighting human trafficking and child exploitation.

“One nonprofit resolved six cases in a week using DarkBlue,” she shares. “When teams share the ways in which our tools are making a difference—that’s what keeps me going.”

For demonstrating exemplary leadership and exceeding performance expectations, Cory was recently named a 2025 Women in Technology Awards finalist in the Rising Star category. She nods to CACI’s approachable culture for providing the support and opportunities that have allowed her to break new ground—both in her career and in the company’s shared legacy.

“With the resources and support you need to thrive, your potential is limitless.” She said. “At CACI, we’re not just pushing technology forward, we’re making a real impact—one case, one breakthrough at a time.”
