Give STL Day is May 6th!

Give STL Day is next week! This past year has been difficult for everyone, especially local small businesses that might be struggling to stay afloat. In order to continue to serve and uplift those in the St. Louis area and bring our community together, Justine PETERSEN is participating in Give STL Day, which will be held on May 6th, 2021. This is a day where you can make a difference in the lives of local small business owners, first-time homeowners and those who seek to become more economically empowered. Your gift to Justine PETERSEN is exponentially leveraged through our asset-building products and services. That is, whatever the size of your contribution, it ultimately translates to significant dollars that help equip individuals in facing the financial realities of the marketplace.

Peter Pranschke is a known, local St. Louis, multi-disciplinary visual artist whose illustrative practice has been showered accolades by art goers and art critics alike. Peter’s cartoonish rendering of JP staffer Galen Gondolfi with his three pooches (PPP) Hank, Lily and Lester has hung on Galen’s JP office wall for nearly 19 years – first at our 5031 Northrup office, and for the last decade, at the 1023 N. Grand office.  Hank, Lily and Lester have long transitioned to the divine dogpark in the sky, but their spirit lives, licks and barks on.  Thank you Peter! Woof! Woof! Woof! (WWW 1.0)
