In October 2022, we had the pleasure of reconnecting with six beneficiaries we had previously supported. Some of these students were with Ascend from their middle school days. These young bright boys and girls not only performed extremely well in their school but also went on to excel in their college education. One student-associate completed her postgraduate degree in English Literature while the others graduated and secured professional positions in the IT industry, an MNC bank, and even Merchant Navy. Witnessing the significant positive changes in their life trajectories was both a proud and gratifying moment for us at Ascend.
