Challenge funds pledged to help Memphis at grassroots level
ioby, a nonprofit organization with a mission to strengthen neighborhoods around the U.S., is launching a $50,000 challenge to help the City of Memphis.
“Not in my backyard,” or NIMBY, is the opposite of this online company that provides a platform for “citizen-led, neighbor-funded” initiatives. Ioby, appropriately enough, stands for “In our backyard.
The campaign in Memphis is called “discover ioby,” and its goal is to start 20 projects throughout the city between April 11-15.
