Giving Good

The mission of Olmsted Parks Conservancy is to restore, enhance and forever protect Louisville’s Olmsted-designed parks and parkways, connecting nature and neighborhood while strengthening our community’s well-being.

Love the Hungry small-group packaging events are a fun and meaningful way to help end hunger. With the help of your family and friends, church, school, business, or community organization, it’s easy to recruit a packaging team of 12 volunteers. Love the Hungry’s nutrient-rich meals are donated to Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) worldwide with an emphasis on reaching the world’s most vulnerable children. Although our primary target is children in developing countries, 15% of the total meals packaged are provided to Kentuckiana agencies to assist local families in need.

Gives hope and healing for a restored life. We offer a variety of programs to meet the needs of the whole person. When someone is homeless or hurting, they have immediate physical needs. Our hope is to meet these needs through our Emergency Services, which include food, clothing, hot showers, laundry, storage and mail services. Our residential LifeChange program for men helps heal brokenness and build positive new lives with a biblical foundation. We provide subsidized Permanent Housing to men coming out of homelessness who have a diagnosed disabling condition.

Since we began in 1985 we have built or renovated over 400 homes in Metro Louisville and Oldham County. But, while building is what we do, the reason we do it is to change lives. We build homes because they are essential building blocks for families and communities; especially when coupled with strong relationships and healthy neighborhoods.
