Find Nonprofits

 

This is your connection to charitable causes in our community.

Become an informed and inspired giver.

Welcome to GoodGiving.net!

 
GoodGiving.net, an initiative of Blue Grass Community Foundation, connects you to nonprofits doing great work in our community. Nonprofit portraits contain information on the people, programs, financials and needs of local nonprofits. We encourage you to explore the portraits and learn more about the organizations that serve our community. 

You can FIND local charitable organizations working in the areas that interest you.


You can LEARN about community impact initiatives at the Community Foundation. If these community initiatives also interest you, we encourage you to donate online. 

You can GIVE with confidence, either through your fund at the Community Foundation, a direct credit card gift or by volunteering your time.

You can find important information about how to use this site by linking to FAQs.

"I just wanted to let you know how valuable this profile has been for me when I am applying for grants. I can go to our profile and print out our 990, our financial data, our 501c3 letter. It’s like a digital file cabinet."—JoAnn Hamm, Kentucky School for the Deaf Foundation.

 
To date, 274 Kentucky nonprofits committed to transparency, accountability, and best practices have completed GoodGiving.net portraits.
