“We are happy to support Camp FYR in particular, supporting underserved youth from around the country in building confidence and overcoming challenges.” Kirsten Karlsson, Head of Marketing and Partnerships, Ascent Protein

Studies have shown that youth fitness programs, especially in underserved communities, can help improve health and well-being. Ascent Protein recently donated $5,000 to Denver-based Forging Youth Resilience (FYR) to support their efforts to bring fitness, nutrition, and mentorship to at-risk youth through its community-based fitness programs.
“As the Official Sponsor of Hard Work(R) Ascent Protein believes in supporting hard work of all ages and backgrounds. The fitness programs offered through FYR help build resilience through the development of lifetime skills such as teamwork and leadership, and we are proud to be their partner,” Kirsten Karlsson, Head of Marketing & Partnerships for Ascent Protein, said.
“We are grateful to Ascent for investing in FYR at this moment of incredible growth for the organization! The FYR network is poised to double in size – from 18 clubs to almost 30 in the next year. Without partners like Ascent, we would not be able to support these new FYR programs offering mentorship and community-based fitness to youth from under-resourced communities. We are also grateful to have Ascent protein fuel our FYR community events – which always include a workout! Thank you, Ascent!” Mason Alberts, Executive Director of FYR.
“Ascent Protein is committed to supporting community partnerships that encourage and foster the aspirations of a diverse group of athletes of all ages” Karlsson added. “We are happy to support Camp FYR in particular, supporting underserved youth from around the country in building confidence and overcoming challenges.”
