About this organization
Mission
We are committed to breaking down barriers to learning for students living in poverty through partnerships and programs that serve the needs of the whole child. Our aim is to empower students to achieve their academic goals and dreams for the future, while leaving an imprint of love and hope on young lives for whom a little bit means a lot.
About
Fills unmet needs in St. Louis schools by providing for the essentials students lack but require for academic success. Food insecurity, undiagnosed health conditions, lack of winter clothing and proper hygiene, insufficient reading material in the home are all examples of barriers that inhibit student attendance, classroom engagement and performance, and are addressed by Little Bit. Embedded in school communities, with volunteers that work one-on-one with students across every grade level, we ensure they are healthy, confident and ready to learn. We also enrich the learning environment with programs not readily available to underserved students that expand their world knowledge, such as STEM and career planning. The results are students better equipped to succeed in today's society.
