Step Up 2025 Conference And Benefit
The purpose of these events is to demonstrate the capacity of people with disabilities to live productive, hopeful and useful lives through examples of some extraordinary individuals:
Jen Bricker-Bauer

Gymnast with no legs
Ciprian Anton

Wheelchair athlete
Chris Koch

Farmer, marathoner and inspirational speaker with no limbs
We are also calling Romanians, Romanian Corporations and the Romanian Government to help individuals to step up to better the lives of these individuals. Stepping up usually requires a hand up from a friend.
The events will furnish snacks, drinks and finger food. An intermission will be observed in the middle of three featured presentations. Live music will be played during the intermission and at the conclusion.
