Build a Stronger Tomorrow - Leave a Legacy of Care Today

Legacy Giving: A Lasting Commitment to Children and Families

Leaving a legacy gift to the Saint Louis Crisis Nursery is more than a donation — it’s a promise that children will always have a safe place to turn and families will always have support when they need it most.

For nearly 40 years, the Crisis Nursery has walked alongside families during their most difficult moments. With five Nursery locations and ten Outreach Centers, we are here 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every single day of the year. Each year, nearly 4,000 children are cared for and nurtured at the Nursery. While here, children receive medical exams, nutritious meals and snacks, clothes and books to take home, and healing opportunities through Art, Play, and Music Therapy. Families also receive crisis counseling and resources that proactively build stability and prevent child abuse and neglect.

Legacy gifts ensure this transformative work will continue for generations to come — so that future children and families will always have a safe place and a caring community to count on.

Your legacy will carry forward a community of care for future generations

If you have already included the Saint Louis Crisis Nursery in your giving legacy, we would be honored to express our gratitude. Please let us know, so we can thank you for the role you play in building a stronger future for children and families.
