Op Shop

The Alliance also runs the Opportunity Shop -'OP Shop', a resale shop tucked into a little room off Fellowship Hall. The Women's Alliance has taken advantage of the pandemic shutdown to create a cleaner, brighter and less cluttered experience. Drop in on any Sunday after services. There are bargains to be had and sales benefit our Scholarship Program and other non-profits. If you have items you'd like to donate, please talk with one of our OP Shop Team members to see if it will work in the space available. 
 
Every year the Alliance sponsors a Women's Alliance Scholarship for a woman who is continuing her education or returning to school.  
 

The Women’s Alliance of the First Unitarian Church of St. Louis Announces its Scholarship Competition for the academic year 2024-2025
Initiated by a generous bequest from the estate of Edna Landzettel, a lifelong teacher and proponent of the importance of education in a woman’s life, the scholarship will be given to a woman who is 21 years or older, responsible financially for continuing her education, a member or active friend of a Unitarian Universalist church or fellowship in the region and a registered student.
The award of $3,000 will be made on the basis of scholarship, character and need.   Materials due by Jul 31, 2024
