Steve Butz is a man on a mission.  Today’s official announcement of his latest endeavor, the Superstar Foundation, is proof of that.

Starting in September, the Superstar Foundation will put cash grants directly into the hands of high-performing social service workers.  What does that mean? Direct social service workers from effective organizations who are doing exceptional work will be recognized. With cash.  Cold, hard cash.  The first couple of years will consist of 5 grants at $2,000 a piece and Steve’s goal is to grow the foundation to where 30-40 recipients per year will receive $10,000 grants.  

We’ve talked about the problems young leaders in the sector feel when it comes to earning potential and other financial concerns, and now there is even more incentive to stick with the industry and improve performance.

And be sure to pass the word on to all the Superstars you know.
