Hi Friends,
It was a wonderful month of November taking time to remember all that we are thankful for. December brings on reflection over the past year and the anticipation for what 2024 may bring.
I'd like to ask if you would consider helping us to finish the year strong through donations as you consider your end of year giving options. We cannot sustain and serve the thousands of Kentuckians we do each year without the help of our community.
Right before Thanksgiving we had the opportunity to work with a young mother with breast cancer that was worried about being able to provide gifts for Christmas for her 2 children. "It's not their fault I'm sick," she said. We were able to help her with some of her short-term financial needs as well as connect with other community resources. We also connected her with a local bible study group that had just reached out looking for an opportunity to serve a family this Christmas. My wish is that she is able to find rest this Christmas and see the smile on her children's faces as they open their gifts on Christmas morning and have some hope.

Thank you so much for following along with our mission. Let's continue our goal to be a link to hope to Kentuckians in need.
Cheers,
Melissa
