The first Build My Future STL event at The Family Arena was a HUGE success! We are proud to have sponsored and to have helped organize this year’s event. We know that not all students will go to college after high school so the purpose of this event is to give local high school students the opportunity to experience possible careers in the building trades through hands on exhibits and connect them with potential future employers. Congrats to all who helped organize the event and thank you to all the sponsors and volunteers! http://www.buildmyfuturestl.com
