We lift Weights.
You lift us.
Our Mission: to offer a safe, engaging after-school environment for St. Louis City children to strengthen their bodies, enrich their minds, develop healthy social relationships and learn to make positive life choices.
At Lift For Life Gym, we lift because:
29%
of crimes occur between the hours of 3pm and 7pm.
Youth with
mentors are
46%
less likely to use
illegal drugs.
135K
kids in St. Louis
are at risk for hunger.
