Philanthropy

On-site Philanthropy

  • We will be putting together art kits for kids at the University of Kentucky Children's Hospital.
  • The kits will include art supplies such as foam stickers, a marker or two, etc. for children to piece together and create a foam picture frame.
  • Conference staff will deliver these kits to the hospital at the conclusion of the conference so that the children can create something unique for themselves or to give as a gift to a friend or family member while in the hospital.

 

Off-site Philanthropy

  • This year the money you donate will be used to purchase as many Hippo Rollers as possible.
  • Hippo Rollers are 24 gallon barrels with a push arm attached for easy rolling. These "wheelbarrows" were designed to alleviate women and children from having to carry 5 gallon buckets of water on their heads. Over time the weight on their necks would cause back problems and Hippo Rollers prevent that.
