ST. LOUIS — Red Nose Day is back for its 10th year raising life-changing funds to help kids facing poverty across the U.S. and around the world. And here in STL, the funds raised are to support Covenant House Missouri.
Thursday morning, the CEO of Covenant House Missouri Dr. Yusef Scoggin, joined Mary Caltrider live in the studio to share their mission and the need for homeless services in the area.
Covenant House Missouri welcomes youth who are runaway, trafficked, at-risk, or experiencing homelessness with unconditional love, absolute respect, and a place to call home. Beyond shelter and basic needs, they deliver transformative solutions to help young people ages 16 to 24 build productive, independent, and sustainable lives.
Today is Red Nose Day which raises funds to support programs that ensure children and young people are safe, healthy, educated, and empowered.
Learn more about how you can help.
