Giving to One Step A La Vez is an investment in the future. By supporting programs that provide education, mentorship, and enrichment opportunities for teens, we empower the next generation to reach their full potential.
Contributions to One Step A La Vez help create a nurturing environment where young people can develop critical skills, build confidence, and gain the guidance they need to become leaders and positive contributors to society. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of young individuals and, ultimately, on the communities we all share.
One Step A La Vez achieved the Gold Seal of Transparency on Candid which demonstrates a commitment to transparency by sharing detailed information about the organization’s operations, goals, strategies, and achievements.
Our teens are the future—brilliant, resilient, and full of untapped potential. But to truly thrive, they need more than just hope—they need safe spaces, caring mentors, and real opportunities. At One Step A La Vez, we believe that every young person deserves a place where they feel valued, inspired, and empowered to grow into the leaders of tomorrow.
That’s why we’re launching a bold and transformative initiative—to invite your philanthropy to be a catalyst for change in the lives of local youth. Your support isn’t just a donation; it’s an investment in a generation.
One Step A La Vez provides more than a teen center—it’s a hub for mentorship, academic support, mental health resources, creative expression, and youth leadership development. We serve as a lifeline for young people in the communities of Fillmore, Piru, and Santa Paula—offering a consistent, compassionate presence in their lives and empowering them to envision a brighter future.
Your contribution directly fuels this critical work. It allows us to expand our programs, support more youth and families, and respond to the unique challenges our teens face. Together, we can build a stronger, more just community—one young person at a time.
To start the conversation, please contact Pedro Chavez at 805.813.3670.
We are raising funds to honor the life, legacy, and enduring spirit of Thomas J. Weisbecker by establishing an educational scholarship fund dedicated to supporting LGBTQ+ youth in the Santa Clara River Valley.
Tommy was a beloved husband to Vibay Weisbecker, son of Francine & Jerry Weisbecker, brother to Matthew, Michael & Nanette Weisbecker, uncle to Makena, Lincoln, Kaiden, and Nicholas Weisbecker, ministerial leader, friend to all, and beloved member of the community.
Thomas was a passionate advocate for social justice, equality, and community empowerment. His unwavering commitment to creating a more inclusive and compassionate world touched countless lives.
This scholarship fund will provide financial assistance to LGBTQ+ students who face barriers to higher education, helping them pursue their academic dreams and reach their full potential. Through this initiative, we aim to continue Tommy’s lifelong mission of uplifting marginalized voices and building a future where every young person has the opportunity to thrive—regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation.
By contributing to this fund, you are helping to preserve Tommy's memory in the most meaningful way possible: by investing in the next generation of LGBTQ+ leaders, scholars, and changemakers.
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and improve our programs and services impacting teens and their families in the Santa Clara River Valley. Your generous donation will fund our mission and go directly to where it's needed most.
