Last month, United 4 Children hosted its hybrid in-person and virtual Lighting the Way gala at Third Degree Glass Factory in St. Louis’ Central West End neighborhood. Guests enjoyed live art demonstrations, appetizers, cocktails, live music and more. United 4 Children seeks to provide services to after-school programs and child care to ensure every child has the support to flourish.

Our Lighting the Way gala is an opportunity for the community to help champion United 4 Children’s work supporting more than 40,000 childhood educators, families and children each year. We want to bring equity to early childhood education to ensure every child can thrive regardless of their race, ZIP code or ability. Our gala and our Change 4 Children monthly giving program are a couple of ways community members can see a big impact from their support.
