THE MEANING BEHIND THE NAME
WHY ASPEN?
Aspen trees rejuvenate. They are the last to burn and the first to repopulate. Aspen trees have a life giving purpose by providing shelter and food. Their bark produces an aspirin-like ingredient used to soothe. You never see just one aspen tree due to their sophisticated root system which allows them to support each other. Because of this, they are often used as a symbol for community.
​
Like aspen trees, Aspen Industries, LLC has a life giving purpose by providing fundraising assistance to corporations, individuals, and nonprofits. Our services soothe. Through philanthropy, we have an opportunity to give, grow, and become mighty. Like the aspen tree, we enrich our community and provide support.
Together, we are stronger.
We firmly believe that our community of fundraising professionals and clients are magnificent, just like the aspen tree.
