We at Cornerstone are overcome with gratitude for the generosity of our Give STL Day Ambassadors, anonymous match contributors, and donors. Together, you raised an incredible $47 thousand through Give STL Day 2022, setting a Cornerstone record for this event and helping Cornerstone place 8th out of over a thousand participating organizations. Our Ambassadors’ work creating this day’s success will have an immeasurable impact providing high-quality care and education for our children who have so much potential.
What is Give STL Day?
Give STL Day is a 24-hour, online day-of-giving event, designed to ignite the spirit of giving across the region and support causes in the St. Louis area where we live, work, and play. Since inception in 2014, Give STL Day has raised over $21.5 million for regional nonprofits in St. Louis and surrounding areas.
In the past 3 years, Cornerstone Ambassadors have helped to raise over $107,000 through personal fundraising pages for Give STL Day. This support ensures that at-risk infants, toddlers and preschool-age children receive the strong start needed to enter kindergarten on track with their peers. Meanwhile, parents are able to better their financial situation by attending school or work with the knowledge that their children are safe and cared for.

What is a personal fundraising page?
A personal fundraising page is a way for you to show support for Cornerstone annually during Give STL Day (date for 2023 TBA). Create your own fundraiser, set a fundraising goal, and then encourage your network of families, friends, and colleagues to support your favorite organization by sharing your fundraiser’s URL via email, social media, or text.
