On September 9, 2011, Saint Louis continued to celebrate the game of chess with the opening of the World Chess Hall of Fame (WCHOF) directly across the street from the Chess Club and Scholastic Center. This historic building features the U.S. and World Chess Hall of Fame, displays of artifacts from the World Chess Hall of Fame’s permanent collection, and temporary exhibitions highlighting the great players, historic games, and rich cultural history of chess. The WCHOF's collection now includes pieces such as a 500-year-old piece from an Egyptian game called senet, the earliest known board game; a custom-made set of chess furniture that belonged to the American Grandmaster and World Champion Bobby Fischer; and the first commercial chess computer; and a silver service awarded to Paul Morphy, American chess player and World Champion. The World Chess Hall of Fame’s current focus is building awareness for the cultural and artistic significance of chess. It presents exhibitions of artistic and historical significance and offers interpretive programs that lend context and meaning to chess. In addition, the WCHOF commemorates the careers of its Hall of Fame inductees. The World Chess Hall of Fame is now the only chess-focused institution that includes both a hall of fame and a museum, and it is the only solely chess-focused collecting institution in the United States.

Located at 1126 S. Kingshighway in St. Louis, MO, Little Bit of Haven provides a home away from home for families traveling to St. Louis from afar with a seriously ill or injured family member requiring a hospital stay. Since St. Louis is recognized as having some of the best doctors in the nation, it is not uncommon for families to travel hundreds or thousands of miles away for the best care. We offer a 6 bedroom, 3 story home, available 24 hours a day, within walking distance to St. Louis Children's and Barnes Jewish Hospital. Allowing family members to stay close by enables them to communicate with doctors as well as be there for their loved one at any time of day. Being so close is just as important as the actual medical care they receive. When families are faced with a medical crisis, the last thing they should have to think about is where they can afford to stay, where they will do their laundry, where they will get their next meal or where they can lay their heads. A Little Bit of Haven seeks to provide just that, rest and peace, at little or sometimes no cost, depending on the situation. We are part of the Acts 1:8 Mission Society which is a 501(c)3 and recognized service organization under the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod.

The educational philosophy at Shaw Avenue Children's Center is demonstrated by the following: We include a diverse group of families and staff. Our smaller overall enrollment size and our small child to teacher ratios are comfortable for very young children. Our encouraging learning environment is formed by our knowledge of individual child development, as opposed to a school model based on age requirements. We promote the growth of children's emotional security and confidence as a foundation for their mental and physical growth. Teams of teachers model the decision-making and cooperation that we expect children to learn. The practice of our Peace Table process confirms that young children have the ability to reach mutually agreeable solutions.
