We're building transitional housing plus the wraparound support that makes it actually work — case management, workforce development, legal clinics, transportation help, and more — for individuals and families moving from crisis to stability in Charlotte, NC.
Yes — Ascending Community House Incorporated is registered as a North Carolina nonprofit corporation and has been issued a federal Employer Identification Number (EIN). We're currently completing the process to be recognized as tax-exempt under IRS Section 501(c)(3), so stay tuned for updates on when donations become tax-deductible.
Not yet — we're in our founding "Year 1: Launch" phase, which means we're securing our first housing site and building out our team before we can welcome residents. Follow us on Facebook to see our progress in real time, and check back here for updates.
We're based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and that's where our first transitional housing site will be. Reach out through our contact page for specifics.
Individuals and families transitioning from crisis toward stability — with a particular focus on safety and support for youth and families. Every service is offered without discrimination, in line with the Fair Housing Act.
Three easy ways: donate, volunteer, or just follow and share what we're doing. Head over to our Get Involved page for the full rundown.
We're in the process of applying for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Once that's approved, we'll update this page and every donor will know exactly where things stand. In the meantime, every dollar still goes straight toward getting our doors open.
That's the plan! We're building legal and expungement clinic support to help residents navigate North Carolina's Second Chance Act, because a past record shouldn't block a future.
A mix of government grants, private foundations, individual and corporate donations, sliding-scale program fees, and community fundraising events. Diversifying our funding helps us stay stable for the long haul — just like the families we serve.
Absolutely — we're actively looking for partners in housing, employment, and community resources. Send us a note through the contact page and let's talk.
