Give STL Day is winding down (although giving is open until 10:00 a.m. today if you'd like to make a last minute gift at giveSTLday.org/Gateway-Equity-Institute)! We are profoundly grateful to our wonderful supporters for making this Give STL Day a success, especially as GEI celebrates its new beginnings.

Our work would certainly be impossible without our community. We will continue to fill 2024 with collaboration, deepened and expanded connections, opportunities for learning, and progress toward equity and justice in our region. There are so many exciting ways we can work together, so let's get started!

If you'd like to increase your odds of having your gift boosted by a Give STL Day prize, don't forget that the 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. Power Hour is about to start. The $30,000 prize pool for this hour will be divided amongst organizations who receive donations within that time. As always, we are most powerful when we work together!

You can also celebrate with us by spreading the word on social media and sharing information about GEI with your networks. Please feel free to share our posts and direct friends and colleagues to our new website (GatewayEquityInstitute.org). Let's connect!
