Know of a St. Louis bus stop that’s in need of an overhaul? AARP in St. Louis, a sponsor of the Build a Better Bus Stop campaign by the nonprofit Citizens for Modern Transit, seeks nominations for its next transit transformation.
In June, AARP awarded a total of $52,500 to three nonprofits and a government entity in Missouri, as a part of the 2023 Community Challenge grants. The program funds quick-action projects to help make communities more livable for people of all ages. This year's winners are dedicated to improving the walkability of neighborhoods, expanding community gardens, enhancing transportation and building more accessory dwelling units.
Raising awareness about breast cancer’s impact on Black women is the goal of the 14th Annual Sista Strut Breast Cancer Awareness Walk and Parade on Saturday, Oct. 7, in downtown St. Louis.
