CO-OP Shared BranchesCU Give: Veterans Appreciation Drive
We're partnering with Veterans Community Project (VCP) throughout the month of July to offer support and security to the Veterans in our community who are experiencing homelessness.
The Saint Louis Veterans Community Project (VCP) Village is a planned, tiny home community and Outreach Center, designed to get unhoused Veterans off the street and into permanent housing. VCP is dedicated to supporting every man and woman who took the oath for our country, regardless of military discharge status.
Please help us serve those that served us! All donations will be delivered to the Saint Louis VCP Village at the end of July.
Veteran Appreciation Drive To Benefit
You can buy directly from the Amazon wishlist, or purchase a donation locally from the list below and drop off at your branch.
22 of every 10,000 US veterans are unhoused. VCP is motivated by the sacred rule, “leave no one behind”.
Missouri is home to 341,834 Veterans. VCP serves any individual who took the oath to protect our Constitution.
There are 35,574 unhoused veterans nationwide. 85% of VCP Veterans transition to long-term housing.
Currently, VCP’s greatest need is items for the Outreach Center, where all Veterans in need are welcome to come for assistance. Thank you in advance for your compassion and generosity.

free Community Shred day
Protect your identity! Gather all sensitive documents you no longer need and we’ll help you dispose of them safely and securely at our free shred events.
Please check back

How shredding can protect your identity.
Even if you’re really careful about the information you put online, your printed files can still be an easy target for identity thieves and should never go directly in the trash.
To help you protect your personal information, we periodically host shred days throughout the STL area. We bring a data destruction truck to our parking lots where you can shred your outdated sensitive documents for FREE.
