STREET PATROL MISSION
We are descendants of warriors, who protected those, who explored and shared their knowledge and wisdom. As their descendants we give aid and comfort to people in need, poor, homeless, and those who society has turned its back on. We do not condemn nor judge. We reach out with open hearts and hands.

If you haven't met Jenine, you are missing out! She is our top behind the scenes Wizard. She does it all: sorting and organizing through mounds of donations, Monday night outreach, fundraiser coordination: Street Patrol Roll, Cardinals Concession Stand, and now the Chaifetz Arena in June. Let's not forget all the work that goes into planning our 10 year anniversary gala. Yep, that's her too.
Meet Jenine...
Could you share a story about your passion and motivation to volunteer, especially for the unhoused community?
I grew up in East St. Louis, Illinois, where people assumed that I would never have anything or do anything constructive with my life. I fought against that stereotype and I am still fighting. I understand, at anytime I can fall on hard times and lose everything. It could easily be me seeking donations. There are many who are fighting the same stereotypes like myself, but from a different place in the community. Sometimes it's a place where they probably never thought they would be.
Spending time with an organization like Street Patrol, is time well spent. It allows me to help those who need help right now. Not a lot of glitz and glamour, just boots on the ground making a difference to many.
Why do you support Street Patrol? How have you contributed?
I volunteer with Street Patrol because they are a small organization that is making a big difference. I help wherever they need me. I solicit, sort, and distribute donations. I also help manage one of the main fundraisers named "Street Patrol Roll".
What was the most memorable moment of your experience with Street Patrol?
It is not just one time, but every time I help distribute donations, someone always says "Thank you". When someone displays appreciation, I never expect it, but it brings a smile to my heart. Feeling that basic human emotion makes helping this organization a worthwhile endeavor.
