Circle of Concern

Circle of Concern serves west St. Louis County, a part of the St. Louis metropolitan area known for beautiful homes, corporate headquarters, good schools and a thriving business community. West County is also home to families that struggle every day to make ends meet. Lay-offs, underemployment, illness or injury, age and more – many families in the thick of West County prosperity find themselves urgently in need of assistance.

Circle of Concern, first and foremost, is a food pantry. We serve approximately 2,000 individuals monthly and more than 1,200 households annually.

At Circle, feeding families is just the beginning though. We also offer financial support, scholarships, job mentoring, children’s programs and holiday events. All of these efforts work together to take a little off our clients’ financial plates, allowing them to use their limited resources to regain their financial footing.
