KY Nonprofit Video Testimonials for kNOwMORE
WHAT KNOWMORE MEANS TO KY NONPROFITS
kNOw MORE nonprofits has helped tell the stories of an amazing number of Kentucky nonprofits. Enjoy these KY nonprofit video testimonials from some leaders of these nonprofits as they discuss what our work has meant for their organizations. From social media promotions to educational outreach and grant-writing material, the spotlight features produced by kNOwMORE continue to circulate–and we could not be more happy.
“As a nonprofit, we don’t have a whole lot of dollars in our budget for marketing,” says Corissa Phillips of Greenhouse 17 (featured in our show on Nutrition). “This is going to go a long way for us…We’re so glad to have this story-telling device.”

KENTUCKY PINK CONNECTION
Mission, History of Organization:
Kentucky Pink Connection aims to provide support by reducing and/or eliminating barriers to screening, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.
Problem being Addressed:
The Kentucky Pink Connection program serves breast cancer patients on a personal basis by reducing and/or eliminating barriers to screening, diagnosis, and treatment. This common-sense approach that was launched by Dr. Harold P. Freeman, a cancer surgeon in the Harlem community for over 40 years has had the remarkable effect of increasing retention, diagnostic and treatment resolution rates.
Typical barriers the patient navigatora might address include: child care needs, transportation issues, lack of financial resources, insurance difficulties, wigs and mastectomy supplies. The Kentucky Pink Connection strives to educate women about the importance of having their mammograms. They can link women without insurance to resources that provide low-cost mammograms.

KENTUCKY EQUINE HUMANE CENTER (KEHC)
KENTUCKY EQUINE HUMANE CENTER (KEHC)
The mission of The Kentucky Equine Humane Center is to provide humane treatment and shelter while working as a clearinghouse to seek adoptive homes for Kentucky’s unwanted equines, regardless of breed. To educate the public and raise awareness for responsible equine ownership so that fewer horses end up in crisis. To work with and serve as a model for organizations with the same mission in other states: to save America’s equines from inhumane treatment.

GREEN HOUSE 17
GREEN HOUSE 17
Green House 17 serves survivors of intimate partner abuse and their communities in the 17 county Bluegrass Area Development District. We do this by sheltering over 230 individuals a year who are fleeing unsafe homes, providing thousands of court advocacy services, providing access to and financial assistance for attorneys, answering thousands of crisis and informational calls, conducting trauma informed care and peer led support groups, educating teens about dating violence, and partnering with multiple community agencies to provide the holistic care. The Kentucky Domestic Violence Association estimates that 1 in 3 Kentucky women will be victims of intimate partner abuse and that as many as 50% of homeless women and children are homeless due to domestic violence. These are the families and individuals we serve.
Without Green House 17’s services, the barriers holding many of these individuals in violent homes or keeping them homeless would still exist. While domestic violence does not discriminate, the vast majority of survivors we serve do not have any other resources. They would be either homeless or in constant fear without the resources we provide. Recently, Green House 17 received a letter from a former client thanking us for the services we provided her and her son. This case presented a very high lethality risk and involved interstate agencies. No one at the table quite knew where was the safest place for this family.
They came to Green House 17. While shelters can be very intimidating places exacerbating the trauma already held by victims, this client felt that we not only provided her with a safe space to go, but also treated her with a level of respect, love and kindness she has not experienced in other agencies since receiving our services. Specifically, she mentioned how she always felt welcomed by staff and that their doors were always open to her. She went on to say that had her first experience not been with our shelter, she would have returned to a lethal situation. We believe that it is our job to love people until they learn to love themselves. The survivors who walk through our doors are deserving; they are of value.
