Ascendus is proud to continue our video series in 2023 with Stories of Ascension: Lifting UP Community.

FACING STRUCTURAL AND DEEP ROOTED inequities, our clients have broken through the hardship of surviving and maintaining a small business during the COVID-19 pandemic. We have seen firsthand how each of our clients has been empowered by our support as we enter a new era of their journeys. Today, our small business owners are focusing on providing an impact, making a difference in their communities, and the journey up.
