The ongoing tornado recovery efforts in St. Louis require continued support through supplies, donations, and volunteer assistance. The teams leading these efforts have updated the list of needed items for each location and adjusted their hours of operation.
At 4theVille, located at 4144 Dr. Martin Luther King Drive, relief activities will continue until Friday, June 6, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. This site is particularly in need of skilled volunteers comfortable with power tools and climbing ladders to aid home stabilization efforts. Interested individuals can visit the location or call 314-280-3247 to arrange scheduling.
The materials required at this site include construction and clean-up materials such as plywood, tarps, OSB sheathing or Zip Boards, poly sheeting, various screws and nails, dehumidifiers, hand tools like hammers and saws, protective gear including work gloves and hard hats, general supplies like tents and batteries, food/beverages such as water and shelf-stable food items, as well as personal care products.
Action St. Louis/The People's Response operates out of the O’Fallon Park Rec Center at 4343 West Florissant Avenue with new hours from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., continuing through Friday. They have an urgent need for family-sized tents, canned goods including fruits and vegetables along with cleaning supplies among other necessities.
The Urban League Headquarters at 1408 North Kingshighway also requests tarps alongside various construction materials like caulk guns and staple guns; they are also seeking canned foods that do not require a can opener.
Volunteers remain crucial across all locations while donations can be directed towards funds established by the City of St. Louis Tornado Response Fund via the St. Louis Community Foundation or through United Way’s Severe Storm/Tornado Relief Fund which supports broader regional needs.
Businesses affected by the storm are encouraged to complete an assessment form provided by the St. Louis Development Corporation for further assistance.
For those needing immediate relief or resources following these events are advised to consult information available on the City's page online.
