OASIS named as one of 100 top-performing nonprofits on new index

OASIS has been recognized among the 100 top-performing nonprofits in America in the new Social Impact 100 Index.

OASIS, an education enrichment organization which serves adults age 50 and over, has been recognized among the 100 top-performing nonprofits in America in the new Social Impact 100 Index. Non-profits listed in the index are those that have evidence of results and are ready to grow.  

Much like the Standard & Poor’s stock index, the S&P 500, which provides information to help people make investment decisions, the S&1 100 provides a way for donors to know if nonprofits are having a real impact. Most people don’t realize there are evidence-based solutions to social issues, such the issue OASIS addresses – aging. This is because donors have never had an easy way to know which nonprofits are doing the most good, and have the potential to do even more. The S&I 100 changes that.

OASIS is one of three organizations in the S&I 100 that are headquartered in Missouri, along with College Bound and the Wyman Center.  And we are one of only four aging-related organizations listed in the index. In the Greater St. Louis area OASIS is reaching nearly 10,000 children and adults each year through our education, health and volunteer programs.
