Did you know? A small gift makes a big difference. Just 50 cents a week provides a winter coat and hat for a child. $3 a week provides one year of Meals on Wheels for a disabled senior. $10 a week provides 20 days of care for an abused child.

Service learning

Volunteering Service learning provides unique opportunities for students to apply what is being taught in the classroom to real-world experiences through volunteerism. It's also a great way to fulfill community service requirements for graduation, student organizations, merit badges or other programs.

The United Way Volunteer Center publishes several directories to connect you with service learning opportunities throughout greater St. Louis.

 For more information or guidance, call the Volunteer Center at 1-800-VOLUNTEER.
