WHY WE GIVE
Monthly "I first heard about Step in New York City when my college invited Bob Coté to come speak. He spoke about the importance of work and the dehumanizing effects of taking responsibility away from people. His ideas impressed and convicted me. In 2015 my husband and I moved to Denver and bought a house in a neighborhood with a lot of homelessness. We saw an overwhelming need and wanted to help. We toured the facility and became monthly donors. We are so thankful for Step Denver and the work it does in our community. We are excited about supporting an organization that is thinking hard about how to help people flourish, not just giving them handouts."
