Now in its 31st year, Motion for Kids remains one of the region’s largest and most meaningful holiday outreach efforts. About 50 law firms and partner organizations participate, each “adopting” children to ensure they receive personalized gifts chosen just for them. Volunteers collectively contribute more than 1,500 service hours to prepare and run this massive community event.

A huge “Thank You” to all the incredible sponsors and volunteers who made this year's Motion For Kids event a success! Your dedication, support and hard work truly make a difference.

There are so many that sponsor kids, wrap presents, bag up the gifts, get those gifts to us, volunteer your time, and do countless other jobs to make Motion for Kids a success. It is truly amazing. And all of that hard work pays off year after year. The kids receive wonderful memories and smile from ear to ear when they come to the party and receive their gifts. The pictures in the photo gallery link below are proof of the joy each of you help bring to the children.  On behalf of the Motion for Kids Committee, the Saint Louis Bar Foundation and BAMSL, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for everything you do year after year.
