How To Help

Make a Donation

Approximately one third of our operating budget comes from the Department of Opportunities and Social Development. The rest of our monies are generated through our social enterprises, programs, fundraising campaigns, and generous donations from our community.

We are also fortunate to have the assistance of the STEPs on Arthur Foundation for our capital projects, such as the building and development of Delaney House.

You can make a monetary donation in person at our office or by mail at:
STEPs on Arthur Society
168 Arthur Street
Truro, Nova Scotia B2N 1Y4

Donations can also be made online through Canada Helps.
