October is UMSL Month of Community Giving!

Will you join us in creating brighter futures!

United way impact

Every October, UMSL takes part in a giving campaign to support the United Way of Greater St. Louis and CHC: Creating Healthier Communities charities. Together, these campaigns strengthen the safety net of services that help families, children, and individuals live their best possible lives. By giving, we invest in resources that provide food, shelter, health care, education, and opportunity across our region. As a community-engaged university, UMSL is proud to partner in this effort to create lasting change and build a stronger St. Louis where everyone can thrive.
