NCI and the Regional Business Council (RBC) has organized an immediate business response to support small business owners and school children who were impacted by the recent tragedy in Ferguson.
The Reinvest North County Fund, established through North County Regional Development Association, a 501(c)(3), has a twofold purpose: to provide immediate relief to small businesses which have been hurt by this tragedy and to provide school districts with appropriate resources to show their children how important school is, particularly in times of distress.
The RBC stepped up with a $10,000 donation for this effort and enlisted the following inaugural donors: the Civic Pride Foundation of the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission, Clark-Fox Family Foundation, J.W. Terrill, Negwer Materials, Inc., SSM Health Care, St. Louis Regional Chamber, UMB Bank, the University of Missouri St. Louis and the Kwame Foundation.

Those wishing to apply for funding should fill out the very short and simple form on NCI’s website at www.NorthStLouisCounty.com.
