Testimonials – Step by Step

Children thrive, Families survive.

“Being a mother is learning
about the strengths you didn’t know you had,
and dealing with fears you didn’t know existed”
~ Linda Wooten

What the authorities say about us:

"It’s amazing that such an organisation even exists. You go in there, it’s always calm, warm, friendly. It’s also very well run — but not in an institutional way, and that comes through very much from watching the staff interact with the children. They’re overwhelmingly kind, but they treat them like people, just like I’d treat my own grandson. It’s truly amazing what they do."

What Parents say about us:

“Step by Step has been part of my family for the past 12 years. I can’t imagine life without them. I have other kids too and, on Sunday, I like to take them out, which would be impossible if Gershon were home. Their services are a lifesaver for my entire family.”

What donors say about us:

“I like that it’s a small charity and I can pop in and see where my money’s going. I went down twice with my kids. It’s very impressive how the young ladies volunteer for nothing. You know that your money goes directly to what you intended, a direct benefit to the end user, whereas sometimes with a bigger charity you don’t have that assurance, because your money is used to cover for staff. I’m very happy about my partnership.”
