I was blessed to train with and run the Steeplechase Distance run last year with this group. We use funds from the race, as well as a variety of fundraisers throughout the year, to help provide financial relief to local families facing health crises. These same families, despite the challenges they are facing, are often right beside us, helping raise money not only for themselves, but the other families. They are a true inspiration and have given me so much more spiritually than I have provided to them financially. It's not a charity, it is an extended family.
My son Billy is 3 years old and suffers from an inoperable brain tumor for almost 3 years. Steps Together has been there with us on our painful journey to help us from the very beginning with financial assistance and overall support. They continuously provide similar support for other families who are suffering through a medical crisis. My family and I could not have made it this far without them.
This charity has not only personally helped family and loved ones, it has reunited old friendships and have created so many more. I really don't know where to start, I can go on all day!!! The love and caring it has taught our community and children is beyond amazing. My 5 year old knows the meaning of giving and loving since age 3 because of steps together. It means everything to us.
I have been honored to be a beneficiary of Steps Together which has made a tremendous difference in my life. ST inspires people to become active to raise awareness and funds for those facing a medical crisis in our community. Beneficiaries, volunteers, and sponsors quickly become family and no one feels alone in their struggles. The help needed in our community is growing stronger and ST could use more resources to build on the meaningful work done every day. Hope ST gets the attention it deserves!
As a member of the Steps Together team, I don't even know where to start. This charity helps local families in our community whom are dealing with medical crisis'. Not only do they help out financially, but it is huge support system.
Steps Together does a lot of running activities, which is great because it also helps keep everyone in the community active.
Steps-Together is an incredible local organization. Within 24 hours of hearing about my grandsons battle with SMA a substantial donation was sent to his parents to assist with medical costs. Since then they have continually helped them. They provide more than financial support. They constantly have local fundraising events as well as providing spiritual support by getting the word out to prayer chains. Last but not least they are easy to reach and is run by incredible, compassionate people.
This organization does much much more than provide financial assistance to the beneficiaries. It is a true community of people helping each other emotionally, physically, spiritually as well as financially.
Steps Together is a wonderful organization run by wonderful people! They are focused on providing financial and emotional support to local families that are facing medical challenges. They bring our community together through local activities and fundraisers in support of several families.
Steps Together is an organization with a heart. The group works through the year to raise funds for families with medical challenges. The leaders and members show true dedication.
I've been volunteering for Steps Together for a couple of years and it has been an amazing and rewarding experience. The direct contact and personal interactions that we as volunteers get to have with the families it supports is priceless. Anyone with Steps Together, whether you're a volunteer, donor, or beneficiary, we all feel like family. Steps Together has brought our community together with a single cause, PAY IT FOWARD!
Steps Together is a grass roots effort that is focused on providing direct support to local families facing a medical crises. The organization conducts a number of fund raising events that gather members of the community together toward a single goal of assisting local families through a difficult time. The organization has raised a significant amount of money for their beneficiaries, but the non profit has also acted as a lightening rod, attracting like-minded individuals looking for a way to pay it forward in their community. The board is entirely made of volunteers and the impact made has been substantial.
Amazing organization started to support one local family - now serving 20 families with major medical issues. Steps Together provides financial and emotional support, as well as a prayer chain for families in distress. All volunteers with big hearts. Kudos to Courtney Newman for starting this and growing it.
Steps Together is an amazing non-profit currently fundraising and assisting over 20 families in our local communities. This non-profit was born of parents, Mike and Courtney Newman, looking to pay their blessings forward after experiencing their own medical crisis with their children.
The funds Steps Together raises help families offset the costs of medical expenses due to a medical crisis or illness. Steps Together is a force of love transforming a community and encouraging the community to pay their blessings forward in a way that is exemplary. In addition to their devoted efforts to fund raise Steps Together also ties in its passion for encouraging the community to get active and holds group trainings (walking/running) to prepare for its annual fundraiser in September. They truly embrace those in need and those looking to make a difference. Everyone involved in the community from board member to sponsors to beneficiaries feels a bond and loves being a part of this "Steps Together Family"!
I share all of this from the heart because my five year old daughter, born with Spina Bifida, is a beneficiary. We have had the blessing of experiencing the power of love, support, and prayers that pours forth from Steps Together on a personal level and the difference they have made in our lives. I couldn't think of a non-profit more deserving of this award. Steps Together is pure love!
