“It has been a long and challenging, but blessed, journey from having no permanent location to our new home here,” says Miranda Walker Jones, Little Bit President and CEO. “I am so proud of our Little Bit team for adapting through two moves in the last two-and-a-half years and doing the necessary - sometimes dirty - work to get us up and running in each new space. It’s amazing the depths of strength you find when you keep your eyes fixed on what matters most – being there for the students, families, and schools we serve.”

Walker Jones says the organization also received significant from donors, volunteers, partners, and friends in the community while it worked to restore its inventory of student items – nearly all of it lost in the flood – move into a temporary location and then find, renovate, and set up operations in its new headquarters. The building in Maryland Heights accommodates Little Bit’s current operations with the capacity to continued growth, she says. Since the time of the flood in 2022, Little Bit has entered 12 new school communities across the area, serving an additional 3,000+ students and their families.
