Area nonprofits seek support on KY Gives Day

Area nonprofits will be looking for extra support Tuesday as they participate in KY Gives Day.

“It is a chance for area nonprofits to showcase all the great work that they do throughout the year in giving back to the community, and it also makes it a very easy way for the community to give to them through the online portal,” said Central Kentucky Community Foundation Communications Coordinator Erin Hahn.

The online portal is open at www.kygives.org through midnight.

Multiple opportunities for matching donations and prize donations will be available throughout the day, meaning even a small donation can make a large impact.

“Throughout the last 11 years, these organizations regionally, so this is in our nine-county region that CKCF works with, we’ve raised over $1 million dollars,” Hahn said. “Just last year it was over $200,000, so those $10, $20, and $5, they do really add up, which is fantastic.”
