~ Our Mission ~

The 1904 World’s Fair Charitable Foundation is dedicated to bringing people together in all walks of life to help reenergize and revitalize the St. Louis region. The base of support for the Foundation is inclusive, grassroots support which means we want all our citizens to have a seat at the table. We want to look back at the 1904 World’s Fair when St. Louis was at the apex of influence and appreciate that part of our history. We also want to look forward as a cohesive community to build a world class city with even greater accomplishments in the future.

During the next few years we hope and expect to recruit at least 500,000 charter members in all walks of life who believe in and who want to join our efforts. We also plan to raise the visibility of our region, nationally and internationally, through a variety of events over the next few years. These events will include golf tournaments, a Forest Park bike-a-thon and Forest Park walk-a-thon, a parade, and other special events. Our immediate goals are:

  • To restore the 1904 Fountains and Pavilions located at the Grand Basin in Forest Park.
  • To create a legacy by memorializing individuals, families and partner organizations in the St. Louis Region.
  • To create a scholarship endowment fund.
  • To support other charitable organizations in the St. Louis region that work to improve the quality of life for our citizens, which is part of the 1904 Foundation's mission.
