International learning builds second language skills, strengthens confidence and independence, and expands individual horizons. Sending a student abroad links a US high school to another country.
Since 2017 we have provided intercultural learning opportunities to low-income students from 34 high schools in the St. Louis region.
Quest is a volunteer-based, community educational organization. As a component fund of the St. Louis Community Foundation, Quest receives no program funding from the Foundation. Every dollar raised in St. Louis goes directly to local student programming and is matched by national scholarship funds from AFS USA, the non-profit organization that provides study abroad programs in more than 40 countries.
