ASCEND Alexandria Volunteers

Ascend Alexandria is a program formed by students who dedicate their time to fight climate change and educate the community. This community program is a subdivision of Volunteer Alexandria that specifically focuses on informing, educating, encouraging, and recruiting volunteers to help out with our many initiatives around the city. We want to be able to give back to the community by cleaning it up, and building a city of people who care about the environment.

Our goals include cleaning up the city by picking up trash while also teaching our community on the importance of being green and doing our part to reduce the impacts of climate change. This organization will schedule bimonthly clean ups around Alexandria, and we will encourage TC students, parents, and other members of our community to volunteer, donate, and spread the word. We want to build a long term organization that will continue on even after the leaders of Ascend Alexandria graduate. The best way of doing this is to inform the public, mainly the youth in our city and schools, and encourage them to continue on this program after we have left.
