Ascendium is committed to making education and training after high school a reality for learners from low-income backgrounds. Through our national education philanthropy, we fund systemic change to ensure learners from low-income backgrounds have a path to upward mobility available to them. As a student and employee success solutions provider, we support colleges and employers in promoting academi

c achievement, long-term financial wellness, and student loan repayment success. In our role as an education impact investor, we invest in education-focused companies that create and develop innovations to improve learner outcomes. As a federal student loan guarantor, we help borrowers avoid defaulting on their student loan or get their student loan back in good standing if they've already defaulted. Comment Policy:

June is Employee Wellness Month, and we know wellness looks different for everyone.

For some employees, wellness comes from giving back through volunteering or mentoring. Others find it in connecting with colleagues, taking time to recharge, or simply creating balance throughout the workday.
We’re grateful for the many ways our employees care for themselves, support one another, and make a positive impact in their communities.

We can’t wait to see what’s ahead for both of them! https://bit.ly/3PGROHX
