From ideas to action

The Resnicks and The Wonderful Company are longtime supporters of the Aspen Institute, which brings together the world’s leading nonpartisan thinkers to tackle the toughest social, economic, and political problems of the day.

The Aspen Institute is based in Washington, D.C. Its mission is to foster leadership based on enduring values and to provide a nonpartisan venue for dealing with critical issues. The Institute has campuses in Aspen, Colorado, and on the Wye River on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. It also maintains offices in New York City and has an international network of partners.

The Wonderful Company supports the Aspen Global Leadership Network, a group of highly successful social entrepreneurs working to create a better society. Members convene in Aspen each year at the Resnick Aspen Action Forum, to turn bold ideas into action in the areas of health, education, and business. The forum receives over hundreds of annual attendees, representing over 60 countries from around the world. The Resnicks have supported the event since its inception and provided a $15 million endowment to ensure its continued operation through 2030.

The Aspen Institute is fortunate to have many dedicated supporters, but few are as passionate and generous as Lynda and Stewart. The Resnick Aspen Action Forum provides a unique platform for extraordinary thinkers and leaders to come together to address the world’s most pressing challenges. Thanks to the Resnicks’ generosity, it will remain a vital part of the Aspen Institute’s work for many years to come.
