IMPACT DAY  Saturday, March 7, 2026

Join us for Let’s Give Back!, a new event dedicated to making an impact and giving back to our Austin community! We’re organizing a volunteer project—possibly a park clean-up or another service activity—to make a positive difference together. Final details are still being confirmed, but you can expect a meaningful, hands-on experience that brings our ASCENDER family together in service.
 Time & Location: TBD
After the volunteer activity, we’ll wrap up the day with a relaxing community picnic to celebrate our collective impact.
