The Stepping Stones Scholarship Fund

Support Stepping Stones and create pathways to independence for people with disabilities. 

The Stepping Stones Scholarship Fund augments Stepping Stones’ financial assistance program, making services more accessible for low income children, teens and adults with disabilities.

The fund, created by Neil and Susie Bortz and family, is an invitation to the community to join hands and resources to extend needed financial assistance to more individuals. 

“Stepping Stones’ programs have such an impact on the lives of people with disabilities and their families. We wanted to help more people experience that impact,” said Susie Bortz.
“We’re all in this world together,” she said. “We hope this fund makes it a little easier to share what we have and make a huge difference in someone else’s life.”

Stepping Stones Executive Director Chris Adams said the need for financial aid grows each year.
“This fund is a reflection of the generosity of this community. I know it will be generating smiles and support for years to come.”
