Advancing hope and inspiration
Grantee Spotlight-Mission: St. Louis
Mission: St. Louis has been a funded partner of Marillac Mission Fund since 2010. They empower individuals for social and economic growth through relationship and opportunity. They believe individuals use their power and influence to break the cycles of poverty. With relationship in hand, they have made a strategic set of programs available to work together to address critical stages in the cycle of poverty. The solution they envision is a multi-generational approach to empowering people by addressing education, workforce development, housing, and crime reduction in tandem to fight poverty across a lifetime. Specifically, MMF funds their home repair services to older adults in North St. Louis.
This Grantee Spotlight further tells the stories of their impact in the community.
