About this Event

Co-Hosts Michael J. Behm, Joe Malcoun and Denise Ilitch with sponsors, Voices For Carbon Neutrality, cordially invite you to an evening of inspiration & fundraisingfor POLAR DEFENDERS.


What is Polar Defenders? Polar Defenders (PD) is a bold sustainable storytelling multiverse that we're building to inspire environmental action worldwide. We’re starting with the launch of a children’s book, an interactive app and green growing programs. Every book then ships with a seed pod so families can plant a tree together. As traction and community build, PD will leverage the book to launch other IP including animated films, TV series, games, educational curriculum and sustainable merchandise.


The evening will include:

  • Intros from our Co-hosts & Sponsors
  • A short presentation of the Polar Defenders universe, mission, and impact model
  • Conversation with the Polar Defenders founders
  • Light hors d'oeuvres and drinks
