We exist to empower the marginalized & oppressed in society… be it the poor, women, children, the older generation, or any other people group who know that no one really cares for them nor will speak up on their behalf. Our aim is to help them know that their voice has been heard and someone is standing up for their rights and dignity in a felt way… giving them stepping stones to changed lives, letting them know they are highly valued & of great worth who can be empowered to become agents of change and transformation themselves, in a needy world.

Stepping Stone aims to be part of the solution, bringing hope where there is none … putting smiles on faces that earlier did not have it… bringing freedom & lasting transformation from the clutches of poverty, debt, destructive community habits and of people never having an opportunity, and bringing change in our nation… one person at a time, one family at a time… one community at a time.

Appeal

As a trust we do not desire to be an impersonal organization. Rather, our aim is that the people we serve will discover that someone cares enough, someone loves enough, someone will step in, in a consistent manner, to bring change and hope “to work for and with them” as we transform lives together.

With this in mind, Stepping Stone has intentionally undertaken to serve specific community needs through projects that are “spearheaded by people with a heart”. As a result an individual, a family, a cluster of people, a community are changed and become a solution.
