About Ascend Cares Foundation:

According to the Ascend Cares website, the foundation began as an effort to support employees after the tornados that ripped through Decatur, Alabama.

That effort has transitioned to “These employees and their selfless actions would become the catalyst for Ascend Cares, effectively kickstarting over a decade of service and hands-on work in our local communities that makes a difference in the lives of others,” according to the flyer.

The foundation has five main pillars: children’s health and safety, education, hunger, housing, and military.

Through partnerships with local organizations, the foundation has helped to “create lasting, meaningful work through hands-on projects,” the release explained.
