On February 21, 2015 ARCHS was honored by the Royal Vagabonds for its leadership in "Building Stronger Communities."
ARCHS' Board Chair Charles "Matt" Matthews and ARCHS' Chief Executive Officer Wendell E. Kimbrough accepted the award on behalf of the organization at the Vagabonds' annual leadership awards luncheon.
Proceeds from the awards luncheon benefit college scholarships for area high school students.
The Royal Vagabonds is a non-profit philanthropic organization founded in 1930 by a small group of St. Louis African American professionals and businessmen to plan, implement, and share common goals and activities because of limited social and intellectual opportunities for men of color.
