What else should people know about your site:

501CONNECT is a St. Louis, MO online community resource designed to be a resource for nonprofit organizations 'and' their stakeholders: donors, volunteers, board members and the communities these organizations serve. 501CONNECT is the only online resource dedicated exclusively to the St. Louis area nonprofit community. In the spirit of building awareness, our feature articles cover not for profit organizations, the communities they serve, people that inspire us and charity events. You will also find information and advice from nonprofit and philanthropic leaders in the St. Louis Community, covering various aspects of the not for profit environment, including: planning, development, fundraising, financial management, board development and volunteer base. We believe that sharing knowledge and inspiring others are essential components of social responsibility. In addition to nonprofit coverage, 501CONNECT provides a platform for nonprofit organizations to connect with community members and cultivate relationships. 501CONNECT offers resources, listings, technical knowledge and other information within one venue, providing value and synergies to St. Louis not for profit organizations at no cost to them with the overall objective of strengthening each organization and the St. Louis community as a whole. 501CONNECT introduces community members to the not for profit sector and promotes personal involvement.
