Kentucky Give Day 2020 is officially complete and we have great news! We have exceeded our goal of raising $10,000 to support our mission! During the 24 hour giving day yesterday we received support from 68 individuals or organizations from 21 counties across the Commonwealth as well as donations from 6 other states.

Just a reminder that the funds raised go to directly support our vision services and programs which provide opportunities for Kentuckians across the state, including everyone in the photos below.
