Blueprint4 is 10 years old!
At Blueprint4, we serve to fill a gap, helping to connect families to the out-of-school programming kids need to thrive. For 10 years, our search site has offered a fast, free and easy way to find after school, school break, college prep and summer break programs across the STL region.
We invite the St. Louis community to join us in the next 10 years of this mission. Together, we can maximize our impact for our community’s youth by providing them access to the opportunities they need to thrive.
