At Assistance Home Care, we believe in being more than a service provider. We believe in being a true partner to the families we serve. That means showing up with compassion, lifting up our community, and standing beside those facing aging, illness, or caregiving challenges. Give STL Day is one of our favorite ways to do just that.
Give STL Day is a 24-hour celebration of giving that takes place each May. Powered by the St. Louis Community Foundation, it connects generous individuals and organizations with more than 1,000 local nonprofits doing life-changing work right here in our region. This day is an opportunity to pause and support the people and missions that make our communities stronger.
Whether you give $10 or $100, your support can create real impact. At Assistance Home Care, we are proud to support organizations whose missions align with our own. These partners provide critical services, resources, and hope for older adults, caregivers, and individuals living with serious illnesses.
This Give STL Day, we invite you to learn more about these incredible nonprofits and consider lending your support.
Why Give STL Day Matters
Give STL Day is more than a fundraiser. It is a reminder that everyone has the power to make a difference. Giving to a cause you care about can help ensure that local families have access to support, education, and compassion when they need it most. The day brings awareness, energy, and resources to nonprofits that often work behind the scenes but make a tremendous impact.
When people come together with generosity and purpose, amazing things can happen. Families find peace of mind. Caregivers feel seen. Individuals facing illness or memory loss find comfort and connection. These outcomes are possible thanks to the dedicated work of local organizations and the generosity of supporters like you.
Organizations We Are Proud to Support
Each of the organizations we are supporting this year has a deep and lasting impact on families in our region. They align with our mission of helping people age with dignity and providing compassionate care at every stage of the journey.
