Ascender Academy needs your support!

Like most nonprofits, Ascender Academy relies on multiple sources of funding to accomplish our goals, including donations from corporations and individuals in our community. If you’re not familiar with Ascender Academy yet, we are an IT/tech training program that provides tuition-free training to those who wouldn’t otherwise have access to advanced job training—and then we aim to place them in quality jobs. Read all about us here.

Our fundraising goals

We’re planning to launch officially in Fall 2015, with our first training class. To make that happen, we need some help. In order to provide our quality IT training courses to students at little or no cost, we’re currently raising money for:

• Tuition for our first class of students
• Laptops computers for each student to use in class, plus other necessary supplies
• Other essential expenses to Ascender off the ground

How you can help

Right now, we are raising money through a GoFundMe campaign, and would be extremely grateful if you were able to make a donation.

Additionally, please share our campaign with your friends, colleagues and loved ones who you think would be interested in our cause—let’s join together to support Milwaukee. Thank you for your support!
