Thanks to those making St. Louis a brighter place to live

Brightside relies on partners to achieve our mission of a cleaner, greener St. Louis. First and foremost are the thousands of volunteers who participate in our projects – from the thousands who serve as Block Captains and Area Commanders to those who help plant hundreds of thousands of flowers every year. We work extensively with the City of St. Louis and all of the neighborhoods in the City.

We have many individuals who volunteer and many groups that volunteer — from company initiatives to service organizations. Over the last year Brightside has partnered with the following businesses, organizations and volunteer events to help make St. Louis a more vibrant and thriving community:
