Sponsor a Client

£11.... what might that buy you these days?

3 glasses of wine/beers in a bar? A few of your favourite magazines? Maybe 3.5 of your favourite venti Starbucks? Certainly once it's cash in your pocket/purse it doesn't seem to last very long.... or is that just me??

What about a much more satisfying for the soul 'purchase'? £11 would sponsor a young homeless person in need for one week at Step by Step!

Step by Step do much more than just provide a warm bed and hot meals, your donation will help provide the services Step by Step offer in helping these vulnerable people achieve their full potential, finding a job, college or training place and eventually a home of their own. Last year almost 8 out of 10 of our service users did just that, please be a part of helping more young people achieve such success in 2010!

You can donate online- http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charities/stepbystep
or send a cheque to Step by Step at 61 Victoria Road, Aldershot, Hampshire, GU11 1SJ.

Thank you, Leanne
