Steps Toward Community Fundraiser

Take a Step. Make a Difference.

At A Step in the Right Direction, we believe community is built by showing up — again and again.

It looks like a parent walking into our Hygiene Free Store and leaving with essentials they can rely on.
It looks like families laughing and connecting at our Westside Community Summer Bash.
It looks like students heading into a new school year with confidence after our Back-to-School Bash.
And it looks like neighbors finding support, resources, and hope at our Community Resource Fairs.

Every one of these moments is a step toward something bigger.

Across the Westside and throughout Columbus, families face daily barriers — access to hygiene, school supplies, baby essentials, and basic resources that support stability and dignity. These needs don’t disappear after one event, and real impact happens when support is consistent, accessible, and rooted in trust.

Steps Toward Community is about the power of collective care.
When you donate, fundraise, or share this campaign, you’re helping us:

Keep our Hygiene Free Stores stocked and open
Support parents and caregivers through Strong Start
Host large-scale community events like our Summer Bash, Back-to-School Bash, and Resource Fairs
Meet neighbors where they are — with dignity, respect, and care

One step may seem small, but together, those steps create safer, stronger, and more connected communities.

This campaign is powered by people who believe in showing up, removing barriers, and taking care of one another — because that’s what community does.

Thank you for taking a step with us. 💙
