The Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis exists to empower African Americans and others throughout the region in securing economic self-reliance, social equality, and civil rights. The Urban League will be the catalyst for this change through advocacy, coalition building, program services and by promoting communication and understanding among different races and cultures. The Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, Inc. takes a holistic approach to economic empowerment and self sufficiency. Through community programs in three counties across the bi-state region, it helps its clients to climb out of poverty by helping them to meet their basic needs, providing educational excellence/equality and economic empowerment and encouraging civic engagement. The League’s Meeting Basic Needs Initiative provides clients in need with food, clothing and other life necessities while strengthening families and helping people become self-sufficient. The Education Initiative encourages and enables participants to apply learning to everyday situations, to embrace technology and to achieve academic excellence. The Economic Empowerment Initiative provides resources to strengthen individuals, families, and communities by improving and climbing the economic “ladder” to a better quality of life.
Eli Global was established by a young entrepreneur almost three decades ago—with no financial backing and a lot of naysayers. He believed that he could take on and beat the market leaders in his industry. Armed with his self-drive, passion, determination and entrepreneurial spirit, he persevered after years of 100+ hour work weeks, numerous failures, worrying about month-end payroll, and even sleeping under his desk at times. He grew his business organically to be the national leader in his industry and then set out to grow even more. The secret to his success? Finding like-minded people who experienced similar hardships and successes. Over the past 25 years Eli Global has grown to partner with over 80 such entrepreneurs, welcoming their businesses to our ever-growing group of entrepreneurial, independent businesses. And this is just the beginning.
