Kentucky Gives Day is an opportunity for Kentuckians, near and far, to come together to make donations to Kentucky charities in an effort to raise as much money as possible in 24 hours. On a single day in May, supporters of Kentucky nonprofits visit a single site – www.kygives.org – to connect with causes they care about and make tax-deductible donations. By engaging as many donors as possible to give to their favorite Kentucky charities, Kentucky Gives Day showcases the collective power of philanthropy to strengthen Kentucky communities. Kentucky Gives Day celebrated its 13th year in 2025.
