By the Numbers
— 2026 —
Polk County may be small, but the need isn't. Every number below represents a neighbor, a family, or a life that was changed because someone found the courage to reach out—and help was there when it mattered most.
Thank you for partnering with Steps to Hope in this mission. Your generosity, volunteerism, and support help ensure that no one has to face crisis alone.
