Sophisticated Giving features the best of St. Louis - the people, the places, the organizations going above and beyond to make our hometown a better place for all of its residents. But when it comes to going beyond giving, two organizations stand out among the rest.

Clayco partners with the communities in which they operate and are in it for the long haul, giving time, energy, and resources to the projects and charities that can help build our community. It is, and will always be, an important part of the group’s identity. They are working with nonprofit organizations to support education, the arts, medical research, disaster relief, and opportunities for minorities, youth, and the underprivileged.
