The St. Louis Bar Foundation, the philanthropic arm of BAMSL, has announced the development of their own, separate website. The new site can be seen at www.stlouisbarfoundation.org. Prior to this, the Foundation had several pages in a section of this website. In addition to the new website, the Foundation has also adopted a new logo that is more modern and more easily recognizable. It will represent their role in the metropolitan area more distinctly.
The new website allows the Foundation to tell their story more fully, establish their role in promoting the administration of justice through education to students and the general public, and grants to deserving organizations, all while highlighting events that result from those grants and other Foundation activities. The new site also features capabilities for others to make donations or to become a Foundation Fellow more easily under the site’s Donate section. The Foundation currently has over 250 Fellows on its rolls.
