eBay Summer of Giving 2013

You may have heard of the excitement of the Summer of Giving 2013 kicking off at the new eBay building grand opening on Friday, May 3rd.  It is a great celebration for eBay’s growth and for the state of Utah as well. We are very proud and excited that Ascend Alliance has been selected to be a beneficiary of this significant event!


Part of the celebration activities is the eBay Summer of Giving 5K race in the afternoon at 4:30 that day.  eBay has organized this race as a 100% donation to each Summer of Giving participating nonprofit organization, as eBay is paying the race fees and tshirt costs.  Upon registration, each runner will select the organization they want their donation ($10 minimum) to go to and then make their donation via PayPal. Ascend Alliance is called "Care Package Event" in the organization selection drill down, please select us if you have the opportunity to participate in this exceptional event!
