KY Gives Day: A Single Day of Giving Creates Extraordinary Momentum for United Impact
Apr 29, 2026

This May, the state of Kentucky will come together to honor and celebrate the organizations that support our neighbors in need. On May 12, 2026, we invite you to join the movement.
Kentucky’s 14th annual day of online giving brings charities and Kentuckians together for a powerful day of action and philanthropy. It’s more than just a fundraiser—it’s a chance to unite, inspire and strengthen the causes that keep our communities thriving. At a time when nonprofits face increasing challenges, #KYGives26 is an opportunity to rally together, amplify our voices and secure critical support.
On May 12th, we invite you to make or renew your gift to the Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky to support local, community-based sheltering for our guests. Your donation stays right here in our community, supporting your neighbors who need your help to self-resolve and reach personal and housing stability.
Choose a suggested gift level or customize the amount to match your giving goals.
