Feed Your Soul-St. Louis has officially changed its name to Hands The Serve; this was initiated out of a desire to add more focus to our additional services of housing and education. Although feeding those in need is our primary focus, we also provide housing assistance to help keep people off the streets and in to a secure setting. Additionally, we work with our Community Colleges to provide scholarship assistance to those who are motivated to pursue an education in order to improve their life circumstances. We are hoping our new name expresses that we extend our hands more broadly to our brothers and sisters in need.
Hands That Serve more accurately expresses our intention of acquiring more financial support from local businesses and individuals. At Hands That Serve we believe that giving people the opportunity to help others is as important as helping those in need. When we join hands with local business owners we can do more for our community. Our corporate sponsors welcome the chance to give back to the community that has helped bring them their success. They enjoy seeing exactly how their money is spent and the fact that this money is spent in the St. Louis area. Hands That Serve has no overhead and is able to give nearly 99% directly to those who need it.
