For more than 20 years, the Decatur community has come together through DEF to help our kids and teens overcome obstacles in their path of learning. DEF’s Step Up Circle represents the commitment of a special group of supporters – a group that is the bedrock of generosity in action that allows DEF to operate programs that help Decatur’s kids reach their full potential in learning and in life.
To join our Step Up Circle and take a personalized step toward shaping the future of education in Decatur, contact Meagan Berardi, Executive Director.
