About
Small steps can lead to big goals. Step 0.1 supports needy people in crisis situations like social exclusion, sickness, poverty, violence, natural disasters or war. We help people irrespective of their religious, ethnical, social or political background. While our search for permanent solutions we work together with various partners to contain conflicts.

Acquisition to STEP 0.1 - In the past 20 years we were able to visit a lot and most notably beautiful regions of our planet. There was a time in which it was not possible for us to help other people financialy, because our little family was also leaving on the edge – respectively we chose this life. For us a dream came true to be able to live from the borderline now. To get that far, a lot of people of the poorest regions of the world helped us. No matter if it were car break downs in the desert of the Sudan or on isolated expeditions in the Himalaya. For us the time has come to give back something. With STEP 0.1 we want to support people in difficult situations. We know that we are just a drop of water on the hot stone, but SMALL STEPS CAN LEAD TO BIG GOALS. With STEP 0.1 we will help selective and directly where the help is needed.

Why I try to support step zero point one:
For me a dream has become true. I can live, in the meantime, on from my activities in border situations. To come so far, a lot of people from the poorest regions of the world have helped me. Is it with autobreakdowns in the desert of Sudan, or on remote expeditions in the Himalayas. Now for me the time has come to return something. With Step 0.1 I would like to support people or regions in difficult situations
What I wish for our world:
No war, poverty and environmental destruction
Why you should support Step 0.1
Because the help comes without bureaucratic losses directly in the aim.
Don´t miss the chance to create a better world.

Veronika Felderer born in Innsbruck / Austria; resident in Schwaz / Austria / Europe
avocation: in winter: on my skis for Franz Weber; in summer: Kellerjochhütte Schwaz – Tirol
I was born in Innsbruck, Austria and already as a child loved to travel and look beyond borders, hence I first lived in Germany, then 10 years in the USA: Now 16 years ago I returned back to Austria with my son. During the summer months I am running a mountain hut together with my husband Günther – the Kellerjochhütte high above Schwaz in Tirol. In winter I organize ski events for an international clientele. While living and travelling abroad I was always helped by the locals – never made to feel like a stranger or alien. I am most grateful for that, hence I want to pass on this feeling to our guests on the hut, but also to our helpers from Nepal who work for us while receiving a tourism education. By surrounding myself with different cultures I feel I am educating myself to a better understanding of different points of views. Tolerance is what I strive for. With step 0.1 I want to help provide enough food for the belly and for the brains to the not so fortunate ones in this world.
Stefan Ager born on 26th May 1988 in Kufstein / Austria; resident in Hopfgarten / Austria / Europe
avocation: student of economy and sport / skier, slackliner
I grew up in Hopfgarten which is a skiresort in Tirol. Since I was two years old I am on my skis every winter. I have been in some places around the globe already and no mather where, the people were always friendly and have welcomed you. When I was in poor regions of Indonesia the people have shared everything with you, despite the fact that they do not have much to share. This makes me think sometimes and therefore I support the superb project STEP0.1. Have a thought too!
