Great Lakes is now Ascendium

We’ve refined our philanthropic strategy, adding new focus areas that support our continuing commitment to removing obstacles so more learners from low-income backgrounds can achieve their academic and career goals.

We believe in the power of postsecondary education and workforce training to create opportunity. Through our continued funding of evidence-based practices, we look to remove barriers to completion and help more learners from low-income backgrounds reach the education and career goals that matter most to them.

OUR 4 FOCUS AREAS
