Community Matters

Funding the Mission Together

We know that mental health and suicide is a sensitive subject. We’ve heard the stigmas around suicide that make it a “taboo” topic of discussion in many circles. Having open conversations about the suicide epidemic in this country, the facts, the signs to look for, and the ways to cope will slow the spread of this growing epidemic. Through fellowship, sincerity, and taking the time to love one another, we believe that suicide can sometimes be prevented. That’s what Shelby’s Way is all about! Utilizing generous donations from our supporters we develop programs to engage our local Kentucky communities.

Swingin' Fore Shelby

Swingin’ Fore Shelby is a charity golf scramble event to raise funds for Shelby’s Way and promote suicide prevention & awareness. These funds provide financial assistance for those struggling with everyday needs, psychiatric (mental health care, depression or suicidal thoughts) visits and unexpected funeral cost of a lost love one to suicide.

Blankets and Blessings

The Blankets and Blessings Revival Run is more than just a cruise through the back roads of the Bluegrass. In October we begin collecting blankets, clothing and toiletries at area locations to bless our homeless community in both Lexington and Frankfort. Then, in November, we gather a group of hot rods to help deliver the items and start outreach conversations with folks along the way.
