On a single day in May, the St. Louis region comes together to collectively support hundreds of the region's nonprofits. Since 2014, these efforts have raised a total of $17.5 million. Last year, at the brink of the COVID-19 pandemic our region came together to raise $4.5 million for the greater St. Louis area and surrounding communities.

With so much work to be done for St. John’s Community Care to be here in our community, when families living with dementia need us, their fundraising goal needs to go beyond getting back to normal funding levels. They need to ensure all our participants and family caregivers that they will always have respite and resource opportunities from St. John’s when they need them at little or no cost. Your gift today helps move us toward that goal – especially when every dollar you donate (whether early or on May 6) is doubled by Scott Credit Union.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, communities across St. Louis and Illinois regions have shown that this outbreak has had both immediate and long-term consequences, and every community, demographic group and individual have experienced different needs. Nonprofits face exceptional challenges and have been forced to think out of the box to increase their services and expenses as the demand in their communities grow.
