Gateway Equity Institute

A nonprofit organization

Thanks to the powerful merger of Diversity Awareness Partnership and NCCJ St. Louis, the newly united GEI is creating lasting change through education, training, and mentorship programs that empower both youth and adults to build communities where everyone belongs.

But today’s social and political climate is putting that mission to the test.

The need for inclusion has never been greater—and neither has the urgency to act.

Right now, GEI stands at a pivotal moment. To continue this vital work, we need your support. Your gift will help us:

  • 💡 Empower the next generation of inclusive leaders

  • 📣 Inspire advocacy and courageous conversations

  • 🛠 Equip individuals and organizations with tools for real inclusion

  • 🌍 Expand our reach and respond to growing community needs

Your generosity fuels hope, and hope fuels action. Every donation helps GEI deliver programs that open minds, build bridges, and create a future grounded in justice, and belonging.

Now is the time to act.

Together, we can shape a more inclusive tomorrow—one voice, one leader, one act of generosity at a time.

🎁 Make your gift today. Share our mission. Join the movement. We cannot do this work without you.
