DASA announces partnership with Together Credit Union

The Disabled Athlete Sports Association (DASA) is excited to announce a partnership with Together Credit Union.

SAINT LOUIS, MO (November 1, 2022)

As a part of the partnership, Together Credit Union becomes the official sponsor of DASA’s Summer competition teams and makes an organizational commitment to support DASA’s volunteer needs during select practices, competitions, and special events. DASA hosts over 500 programming events annually, many of which require volunteers to provide an exceptional experience to our athletes.

“Partnering with an established, community-centered non-profit organization like Together Credit Union, which prioritizes connecting resources and support to those in need, expands DASA’s geographic reach to impact more people throughout the St. Louis Region in need of our programming and services”, said Kelly Behlmann, Founder and Executive Director of DASA.

“DASA athletes are some of the most remarkable individuals I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Their tenaciousness to achieve more than society believes they can do is as inspiring as it is motivating. We hope this partnership enables DASA to expand awareness of their services, outreach in underserved communities, and innovation on and off the field in the St. Louis Metro Area,” said Tom Kraus, Chief Operating Officer at Together Credit Union.
