2023 Civic Giving
As Advantage Capital aims to strengthen communities, it is critical we are active and involved corporate citizens. We are committed to contributing to the causes and organizations we care about.
The mission behind our civic engagement is to help mentor and foster growth in the youth of today and the entrepreneurs and workers of tomorrow.
In 2023, Advantage Capital donated $100,000 a piece to Son of a Saint in New Orleans, LA and Arch Grants in St. Louis, MO. This special set of donations underlines a long history of supporting growth opportunities in communities.

Son of a Saint
Founded by the son of a New Orleans Saints football player who lost his father at an early age, Son of a Saint provides lasting mentorship, emotional support and life skills development for young men in the community. Our donation to Son of a Saint helped establish the Advantage Capital Direct Scholarship for deserving elementary and high school boys and girls to support their attendance at tuition-based New Orleans schools.
Arch Grants
Arch Grants provide up to $100,000 in equity-free grants and access to an ecosystem of resources, helping early-stage startups grow and scale. The organization was founded in 2012 and seeks to be a resource for entrepreneurs developing the next generation of employers, civic leaders and philanthropists throughout the St. Louis region. Our donation to Arch Grants is to help further this mission and drive funding to the innovators and entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Likewise, the entrepreneurs of tomorrow are the next generation of employers, civic leaders, and philanthropists throughout the St. Louis region.
