2. Raise Poverty Awareness

We’ll do this by sharing relevant articles, infographics, and the latest Missouri poverty data from our proprietary Community Needs Assessment Tool. By reading our blog, you’ll have the opportunity to keep up-to-date with the five elements of poverty: food, health, education, family & economic security, and  housing & energy. Come across something interesting we should feature? Send it our way!

3. Access Nonprofit Resources
