Give Hope

For decades, Step Forward has been more than a resource — we’ve been a partner to families right here in Cuyahoga County. When hardship hits, we walk alongside our neighbors, helping them take meaningful steps toward brighter, more stable futures.
​
Much of our work is supported through grants that fund specific programs and services. But the heart of what we do - meeting families where they are, responding quickly to needs, and building community strength - depends on the generosity of local donors like you.
​
Your gift doesn’t go somewhere far away. It stays here, in our community - supporting local children, empowering parents, and strengthening families. Every dollar helps us keep doors open, keep hope alive, and keep change moving forward for the people who call this place home.
You’re fueling a mother’s confidence, a child’s future, and a family’s chance to thrive. You’re investing in stronger neighborhoods and a stronger community for all of us.
​
Together, we can make sure Cuyahoga County continues to be a place where every person has the chance to step forward.
