20 Years of Service
and a New Name
On March 14, 2023, the Children and Family
Services Center celebrated a special milestone.
It was the 20th anniversary of the nine founding
agencies moving into the building. We hosted a
celebration with 100 of our friends, partners,
donors and other stakeholders to recognize the
hard work that was put into bringing this center
to life and all that has been accomplished since.
Videos of nonprofit leaders past and present were
part of an interactive display and we had a partner
expo to showcase the many organizations we
serve. We also took this opportunity to make a
special announcement, unveiling our new name
and brand – Ascend Nonprofit Solutions!
We are very grateful to our sponsors for
supporting us through this event: Ally, Cigna,
Clifton Larson Allen, First Citizens, iSolved,
Lincoln Financial Group, Marsh McLennan, The
Keith Corporation and USI.
