Make a Donation to Stepping Stones


For siblings Luke and Emmaline, being in nature and having outdoor fun is a regular part of their family life.

Emmaline, age 13, and Luke, age 10, are thick as thieves as they study and play together at their Mt. Carmel home. Both siblings have intellectual disabilities and while Emmaline struggles with ADHD and anxiety, Luke is on the autism spectrum. Fishing, hiking and playing in the creek are all activities purposefully infused into their homeschool curriculum as well as keystones of their family life. Finding Stepping Stones’ Summer Day Camp was a big deal.

Their first summer as campers in 2021, Stepping Stones became an extension of their education and family life. Each day of camp the children were able to participate in nature activities that they already loved doing, but this time with other children and counselors. Their mother Wendy says that the individualized care that Summer Day Camp offered her kids was “an important part of the magic.” Counselors would come to know each camper, their specific support needs, and encourage their interests. Luke and Emmaline had a fresh opportunity to learn and grow with other people outside of their family.

Will you consider a donation to support Stepping Stones and participants like Luke & Emmaline? We’re less than $7,000 away from reaching our stretch goal of $45,000.

We sincerely appreciate your support!
