NCJWSTL Capital Campaign
Why
It is imperative that we continue our mission of improving the lives of women, children and families. To do so, we need to be in a facility that accommodates our popular and growing Resale Shop as those revenues support our operations.
- Sales floor and donations space as well as parking are currently at capacity.
- Office and meeting space have also reached their saturation point as initiatives and staff have expanded.
- Offsite storage space for programs like Kids Community Closets and Back to School! Store need to also be condensed.
This new facility will accomplish all of this, plus allow for future creative programming.
Expansion
St Louis Women’s Network
Tier 1
Tier 2
Tier 2 will provide both an online community and a physical location where:
- women in need of services can easily identify and connect with relevant resources.
- providers can offer online and in-person resources, programs, classes and workshops.
- participants can form online or in-person subgroups for mutual support (eg: working moms, women re-entering the workforce, women caring for aging family members, etc.)
Budget
$3.6M to purchase the building, make needed upgrades prior to moving in and establish a dedicated building fund to secure the future.
