The Extension has worked with Ste. Genevieve – St. Vincent de Paul to improve the lives of those in our community.

 

St. Vincent helps meet the immediate needs of many in our community, while the Extension implements evidence-based strategies that enhance access to resources.

 

One of the ways MU Extension has assisted in meeting immediate needs is through Ste. Genevieve County Missouri 4-H food drives. Longer term efforts include the recently produced resource manual that connects individuals to additional assistance throughout Ste. Genevieve.

 

To donate to the food drive or to pick up a resource manual, please stop by the MU Extension office located at the Progress Sports Complex.
