The St. Louis Blues and Ameren Missouri awarded $21,000 to four local nonprofits today as part of the sixth annual Power Play Goals for Kids program. The program supports local charities focused on improving the lives of kids throughout our community.
For every power play goal the Blues scored during the regular season (Jan. 13 to May 13), Ameren Missouri donated $500 to a children's charity selected by fans via an online vote that concluded on April 3. This season, the four worthy nonprofits were CASA St. Louis, Central Missouri Foster Care and Adoption Association, LifeWise STL, and Youth In Need.
Earlier in the season, fans voted for their favorite charity. In one of the closest votes in the six-year history of the program, Central Missouri Foster Care and Adoption Association (CMFCAA) was declared the winning organization for this season. CMFCAA, based in Jefferson City, is a not-for-profit agency that educates, supports and advocates for foster and adoptive children, youth and families in central Missouri by offering services and partnering with community and governmental agencies to develop healthy and self-sufficient individuals and families.
