About Us

The Bellwether Foundation was founded in 1985 by a local St. Louis family. Continuing the family commitment to philanthropy, Bellwether is still managed by family members and close friends today. Since 1985, The Bellwether Foundation has contributed more than $65 million to qualified 501(c)(3) organizations that align with their mission. Together, they work with the desire to better the St. Louis region for all.
