Dear Friends,

At Promise Community Homes, a well-maintained home isn't just a feature of our specialty housing programming for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, it's the foundation of everything we do. 

While major projects like installing ramps and renovating bathrooms provide much-needed accessibility features to the home, it's the smaller, quieter tasks that help preserve the independence and dignity of each and every resident on a daily basis. 

Replacing smoke detector batteries, repairing leaky faucets, and cleaning gutters extend the life of the structure, maintain air quality, and prevent small problems before they become big ones. Most importantly, these tasks ensure nearly 300 incredible adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities can continue living safely, comfortably, and independently in the neighborhoods they call home.

Across more than 80 properties, our Maintenance Team works around the clock to ensure every home is safe, stable, and made to last. Thank you for for helping us ensure that every resident not only has a place to live, but a place to stay — for life.

Warmly,

Matt Elmore

Executive Director

Some of our most recent home upkeep projects included resealing a driveway in one home and installing loose-fill insulation in the attic of another.

Resealing the driveway helps fill in cracks formed in the winter and provides protection from the upcoming summer heat, while the insulation will keep indoor temperatures stable and extend the life of the home's HVAC system.

These projects and more help turn these two houses into forever homes for residents with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Thank you to all the sponsors, donors, players, and volunteers who supported the Promise Community Homes 17th Annual Golf Tournament fundraiser on May 12 at Whitmoor Country Club.

Together we raised over $65,000 for the specialty housing needs of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities!

Because of you, nearly 300 residents with IDD in the St. Louis area are provided with independence, stability, and dignity through affordable and accessible forever homes. 

From the bottom of our hearts - thank you!

At its May board meeting, the Productive Living Board of St. Louis County (PLB) approved over $100,000 for essential home repairs, and more than $1.2 million towards the construction of PCH's Instilling Understanding multi-unit apartment building to further independent living for this incredible population.

In FY27, PLB approved $31,787,562 in total community investments supporting more than 4,600 individuals and families across St. Louis County through a variety of service providers.

These publicly funded services help residents with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) live more independently and participate fully in their communities.
