AmeriCorps St. Louis is a unique nonprofit that provides skill building and leadership development opportunities for young adults wanting to make a difference. We are a service organization that carries out projects related to environmental stewardship, wildland firefighting, and disaster response. In addition, we operate a homeless shelter at our location in Soulard. Just as the Peace Corps is Americans in service to the world; AmeriCorps is Americans in service to each other.
This year, we're raising funds to replace the garage door at our headquarters office! Our outdated garage door has sustained damage that makes it difficult to open, and is a safety risk for our building. Our AmeriCorps Members utilize the garage space to safely store program vehicles and equipment for their projects. We aim to make this space more functional, safe, and accessible!
The mission of AmeriCorps St. Louis is to enhance the professional skills and life-long ethic of the people who serve; to respond to critical unmet needs in the areas of emergency response, environmental conservation, wildland firefighting, and homelessness; to leverage service of volunteers; and to build the capacity of our partnering agencies and communities we serve.
