For the third year in a row, Capes Sokol takes pride in its inclusion as a finalist in the St. Louis Business Journal’s Corporate Philanthropy Awards program. The program recognizes St. Louis’ most philanthropic organizations, based upon local cash and in-kind giving in 2021.

Last year Capes Sokol made contributions totaling more than $150,000 to a variety of organizations across St. Louis. In addition, Capes Sokol donated funds to the new Freedom Suits Memorial Sculpture to be unveiled in downtown St. Louis later this year. This sculpture commemorates the roughly 400 slaves who petitioned the Missouri Courts for their freedom and the individuals that assisted them.

In addition, the firm partnered with the following organizations through financial support and volunteer efforts:

• Alzheimer’s Association
• American Bar Foundation
• American Red Cross
• Books for STL Kids
• Feed My People
• Gateway to Hope
• Girls in the Know
