Ascent® Protein Provides $10,000 donation to Team Red, White & Blue
Supports Veterans Health and Wellness Community
DENVER, Nov. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Ascent Protein announced this week a $10,000 donation to Team Red, White & Blue (RWB), a non-profit organization forging America’s leading health and wellness community for Veterans.
In August of this year, the Ascent team partnered with Team RWB during their limited time only, Mocha Cold Brew Whey Protein Powder launch and was able to donate proceeds from sales of that flavor to Team RWB. This resulted in Ascent being able to donate $10,000 to Team RWB. The Mocha Cold Brew was a fan favorite and sold out in just under 3 weeks – Ascent looks forward to bringing this flavor back & hopes to continue the partnership with Team RWB.
“From our inception six years ago, the Ascent Team has been committed supporting the military,” Kirsten Karlsson, Head of Marketing, said. “Our products are embedded within the US Armed Forces, as we have extraordinary roots with military exchanges worldwide. We are honored to make this donation directly to Team RWB and directly support the health and wellness of America’s Veterans.”
“Team RWB is grateful to Ascent’s commitment to join forces with us as we work to guide America’s Veterans into civilian life and their priority on building a healthier physical and mental health lifestyle,” said Keith Galloway, Director of Operations for Team RWB. “Prioritizing a healthy life can be challenging for veterans whose ‘mission-first’ mindset can mean neglecting their own health.”
