Thank You From The Tom Shaw Foundation

In October 2025, the Tom Shaw Foundation hosted its annual walk along the Katy Trail in Defiance, raising $4,000 for the St. Charles County Walk to End Alzheimer’s.


The Foundation truly appreciates everyone who participated in and sponsored the walk. We are grateful for your support each year.

Mark your calendars for October 11 to join us for this year’s walk. Funds will support Backstoppers of St. Charles County, Guns ‘N Hoses, and the Missouri Peace Officers Association. Click here to view the thank-you flyer from the Tom Shaw Foundation.
