Welcome Neighbor STL

Welcome Neighbor STL is a community group of 1,500 volunteers supporting immigrants and refugees as they begin a new life in St. Louis. Services offered include family partnering to help read mail, schedule doctor appointments, navigate insurance, and create a support system for those newly relocated to America. WNSTL also offers English classes, driving lessons, group outings, holiday celebrations, and donation drives to help families in need. Most recently, WNSTL has been primarily focused on helping refugees and immigrants start their own businesses to be able to earn a meaningful income and give back to the St. Louis economy. To date, WNSTL has hosted 64 interfaith events and raised $97,286, with 100% of the proceeds going to the refugee cooks who prepared the food.
