Innovative Charitable Investment in Greater St. Louis Area Children and Youth.

We believe in investing in game-changing programs for children with developmental, intellectual and physical disabilities that engage and inspire young minds, heal growing bodies, and cultivate dreams of bright, confident futures.

We believe that leading-edge ideas in K-16 education can change the course of a future—one bright mind at a time.

Since 1926, we’ve pursued Cap Tilles’ vision of providing a helping hand for children in need. We aren’t interested in simply writing a check. We’re an active board of non-profit leaders, investment advisors, and business owners who seek to be long-term partners with like-minded non-profit organizations—child-centric organizations who are making a measurable difference in our community for the future.

We only fund non-profit 501(c)3 organizations. We’re primarily seeking funding opportunities in two areas:

  • Innovators serving children with developmental, intellectual and physical disabilities
  • K-16 Education
