FUNDING
Supported 100% by private donations, we rely on the generosity of individual, corporate, and foundation giving. Consider investing in your heroes as we aim to build financial self-sufficiency.
In-Kind
In-Kind goods help offset critical expenses for military and veteran families. We have four main drives throughout the year focused on our clients' greatest needs: Baby Drive, Backpack Drive, Thanksgiving Drive, and Toy Drive.
VOLUNTEER
More than 40% of our workforce every year is made up of volunteers. Whether your group is registering service members at a special event or sorting donations in our warehouse, we promise a rewarding hands-on community experience.
ADVOCACY
Raise YOUR voice! STEP's growth stems from our community partnerships. Without passionate advocates, we would not have been able to touch 30,326 lives in 2018. Join us in sharing our mission and advocating for our military families.
