15 years steps for children
Dear friends of steps,
we would like to celebrate with you: steps for children is turning 15!
I (Dr. Michael Hoppe) can still remember very well how, 15 years ago, I decided that I wanted to give something back. The vision of strengthening local people from within, enabling them to independently break the cycle of poverty and finding ways to become somewhat less dependent on donations was developed.
We have consistently pursued this for 15 years, and you can see below what has come of it. Many people accompany us on this journey with their expertise, goodwill and support. Thank you for supporting and encouraging us over all these years, standing by our side in an advisory capacity, and enabling us together to provide children, young people and adults from the poorest backgrounds with the means to help themselves. Thank you for your commitment.
Yours, Michael Hoppe
