Working and learning with the Historic Ville Neighborhood of North Saint Louis, we bring people together to build relationships, support, educate, inspire, and promote positive change. - Revitalization 2000, Inc. Mission Statement

 

Founded in 1998, Revitalization 2000, Inc. (“R2K”) builds empowering relationships with residents of the Ville neighborhood of North St. Louis.  We serve as a bridge between them and the broader region so that together we might build a better neighborhood and a better St. Louis.

​

The home base of R2K, Claver House broadens horizons and builds kinship. Recognizing the dignity of all persons, we help dissolve economic, racial, and cultural barriers. We do this by:

1. Offering science and literacy-based enrichment activities to grade school age youth in a safe, home-like, loving      environment.

2. Providing a service-learning environment for volunteers that promotes faith and justice.

3. Engaging with residents, helping one person at a time, giving them what they need, and doing so with kindness and respect.
