We are proud to welcome back Lodging Hospitality Management (LHM) as a returning Award Sponsor for the 2nd Annual Starfish Awards! LHM has long been a champion for community-based organizations across the St. Louis region, and we are honored to have their continued support in recognizing the individuals who go above and beyond to make a difference for students with disabilities.

With a portfolio that includes iconic properties like Union Station Hotel, The Cheshire, and The Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark, LHM has made it their mission to not only redefine the hospitality experience but also invest meaningfully in the people and communities they serve. Their commitment to giving back shines through in their partnerships, volunteerism, and support for impactful events—like ours.

LHM’s commitment to community is woven into their company culture. They generously support numerous organizations focused on education, health, family services, and youth development. From Ronald McDonald House Charities and St. Patrick Center to the Urban League, Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation, and the American Cancer Society, LHM is helping to meet critical needs throughout the region.

Their investments help ensure that children have safe places to stay, families facing hardship have resources to rebuild, and students—just like the ones SEF supports—have the opportunities they deserve to thrive.

In addition to their involvement with the Starfish Awards, LHM has also supported our Dan McLaughlin Charity Golf Tournament and Auction, helping make it one of SEF’s most successful and impactful fundraising events. Their partnership continues to amplify the reach of our programs, scholarships, and student experiences.

We are so grateful to LHM for standing with us again this year to celebrate those who “make a difference for that one.”
