Start a Team

2026

Your organization already shows up. This year, bring your network with you. Every team sets a goal, gets its own link, and watches its total climb on the campaign leaderboard.

Three steps

Launch your team

1

Create your team. Name it after your organization or chapter, set a goal, add a photo. About three minutes.

2

Invite your people. Each member joins with a personal page. Share the team link by text, email, social and your newsletter.

3

Serve together. Pair your team with a service day at /volunteer. We thank every team on site and in the season recap.

Create your team

Secure giving through Give Lively. 100% of gifts go to A Step to Freedom, a 501(c)(3). Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

$1K

Team goal

Teams that raise $1,000 fund forty winter packages and are thanked on the ASF website and on site at every service day. Individual fundraisers: aim for $250, ten packages.

$25

One package

A blanket, socks and water, and a card that says where the next step is. Prefer to give once? Give here, once or monthly.

Employer match

Ask every giver one question: "Will your employer match?" Many companies double gifts through Benevity and similar programs.

"A Step to Freedom is a nonprofit focused on economic mobility, through housing placement and workforce development. Warm the Streets is how someone meets ASF. The job and the home are how they leave."

Companies and organizations: sponsorship levels and the deck live at /sponsor, and Jamara Walker handles them at jamara@asteptofreedom.org.
