A new monthly giving program is helping create brighter futures for students at STEPS Pathways College.
STEPS Pathways Charity has officially launched 100 Connect, a powerful new initiative designed to support young adults with a disability and autism on their journey to independence.
The program invites individuals and businesses to commit to a monthly donation of $100, creating a sustainable source of funding for STEPS Pathways College, the first and only college of its kind in Australia offering a live-and-learn model of independence education.
STEPS Pathways Charity Manager Katrina May said that the initiative will help enable the College to deliver initiatives that lead to real change and lasting impact.
“When you join STEPS Pathways Charity 100 Connect, you’ll be part of a community that believes in our students, invests in their futures, and celebrates their transformation on their journey to independence,” Ms May said.
“I believe what we accomplish here at STEPS Pathways College is extraordinary and is unrivalled in this country,” she said.
“When we empower young people with a disability and autism to live independently, we don’t just transform individual lives—we strengthen the communities they belong to, creating a ripple effect of inclusion, contribution and shared growth. I encourage you to please join 100 Connect and be part of this powerful movement.”
Carmel Crouch AM, STEPS Managing Director and founder of STEPS Pathways College, said she is extremely grateful to everyone that joins 100 Connect and plays a part in transforming the lives of young people with a disability and giving them a pathway to independence.
“The funds raised will go directly to ensuring that no student is left behind. That no learning is interrupted. That every young person who comes through our doors continues to build the skills, and the confidence, to have the future they want and deserve,” Ms Crouch said.
