Chesed Shel Emeth Burial Society serves the St. Louis Jewish community and fulfills a sacred trust to honor the memories of those who rest within our cemetery grounds. We are committed to maintaining, restoring and enhancing our cemetery grounds and facilities and to provide a safe, secure, serene setting for prayer and reflection. We contribute to community efforts to ensure that the indigent are provided with a proper Jewish burial. We further preserve our sites, graves, monuments and archives for the benefit of future generations and to facilitate educational, historical, and genealogical opportunities and inquiries.
It is with great pleasure that we announce our successful application to the Staenberg Anything Grant through the Jewish Federation of St. Louis. We applied to this grant to begin working on repairing and replacing sidewalks at our University City location.
Our cemetery has been around since 1888 and we house hundreds of trees. These trees have a root system which have caused sidewalks to lift and break. We care about the safety of our visitors so fixing the sidewalks is essential.
Please help us by donating toward these repairs. This is a matching grant and will be awarded once matched.

Thank you for your continued support,
