T aylor Dailing '15, former Alpha Nu chapter president, and her friend, Kelly Weber, have created a website that connects people interested in volunteering and donating to St. Louis nonprofits with worthy organizations. "In doing so, we intend to increase awareness of a variety of organizations and foster a sense of altruism throughout the general community" their website says. Taylor and Kelly met at Mizzou while volunteering with the Suicide Prevention Coalition. Each woman had a friend who'd died by suicide. They reconnected in St. Louis when Taylor reached out to Kelly for social media help. They realized that they had similar aspirations and decided to join their talents. The result: STL Serves, a website and Facebook group prioritizing connection and community with St. Louis nonprofits and volunteers. On stlserves.com, more than 250 volunteering opportunities are organized by category: animals, education, LGBTQIA+, veterans and more. After selecting a category, users are taken to a page that lists all of the organizations, with options for volunteering, donating and getting more details. "When I moved back to St. Louis a little over a year ago, I wanted to start volunteering again, but it was hard to connect with anybody," explains Taylor. "I ended up at St. Patrick Center after a long search. I love that place and am thankful the process led me there, but it was hard. This gave me the idea to start a website where all the volunteer opportunities in the city are organized into easily searchable categories. I think there are a lot of people out there who are like I was several months ago." STL Serves was featured in St. Louis Magazine last winter. Taylor is the directory editor for Sigma Sigma St. Louis alumnae chapter of Alpha Chi Omega. TAYLOR DAILING '15 WANTS TO CHANGE THE WAY ST.
