Why we move beyond charity.
Education + employment go a long way toward providing opportunity to people in St. Louis, but other needs still exist. Beyond Charity programs meet the other needs of our city in empowering ways, creating a complete foundation for people + communities to flourish. From older adults to kids + their families, our diverse range of programs impact leaders of all ages so they can stay in the neighborhood they're transforming.
