EDITOR’S LETTER

Learning to Do Good

O

n behalf of the Class of 2014, it is my honor and privilege to introduce to Nfocus readers the 2015 New Faces of Philanthropy: Kate Biagi-Rickert, Ashley Duncan, Daniel Mudd, Curry Nicholson and Austin Whitely. The genuineness of these individuals’ actions, as told in their inspirational cover story, reminds us all of the true meaning of philanthropy: to seek justice; correct oppression; defend the orphan; and plead for the widow. Congratulations, New Faces – and thank you! We hope your recognition in these pages amplifies your abilities to do good, and we wish you the best of luck.

My own involvement with New Faces of Philanthropy grew out of my work for Louisville Public Media.

89.3 WFPL News, Classical 90.5, 91.9 WFPK Radio Louisville and the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting, including our digital presence, is a vital and growing news and cultural institution that

keeps Greater Louisville informed, holds the powers-that-be accountable and puts on one hell of a concert (WFPK Waterfront Wednesday returns in April)! Check out our Charity Spotlight on Louisville Public Media and thank you for making the Fall Membership Drive a success!

Philanthropy ranges from one individual’s random act of kindness to the dedicated and sustained work of our New Faces, to the practiced responsibility of the world’s largest companies. PNC is one of Louisville’s largest corporate philanthropists – and as a generous sponsor of Louisville Public Media’s Instrumental Partners program and Young Artist Competition, both initiatives geared towards putting musical instruments into children’s hands – one of my personal favorites! Read our Corporate Spotlight on PNC’s shining example and consider how you can do well and do good, too.

Colors of Courage From a “Friend of Hope Scarves”

“F

riends of Hopes Scarves” infers a common understanding, a connection.

To know the founder, Lara MacGregor, understand her mission, and not become a Friend of Hope Scarves is a losing proposition. The title was initially bestowed onto those volunteers who supported Colors of Courage, a casual outdoor affair that pairs good food, good people and good music each year when the crisp kiss of fall is ushered in. As the “casual gathering” has grown to over 500 guests, so has the circle of friends grown to include over 45 volunteers on two acres of a private venue.

You may know Lara’s story: the picture of youth, health and life, she was diagnosed with breast cancer in the seventh month of her second pregnancy.

She fought through that diagnosis to welcome a healthy son into the world with her husband, Jay, and founded Hopes Scarves out of her guest bedroom. As Lara explains, “Hope Scarves was created to capture the stories of courageous women and encourage others by passing along scarves and stories of hope. We hope when each woman wraps a Hope Scarf around her head she feels the strength and determination of the women who wore it before her.” Since 2012, Hope Scarves has sent over 2,500 scarves to people facing over 90 types of cancer in every state and nine countries, ranging in age from 5 to 92.

Colors of Courage was set for a hopeful repeat of the prior year’s perfectly painted sunset sky. Instead, car loads of supporters were greeted by buckets of rain. Yet, guests showed up with rain boots, umbrellas and warm smiles of encouragement.

As the rain poured down, Lara stood atop a table smiling at the gathered group. She lives fully with hope. She also lives, once again, with cancer, this time in the form of Metastatic Breast Cancer.

The captivating enthusiasm of a woman joyfully standing on a table in the rain fighting for the well-being of others while fighting for her own life, moves you.

Beyond the losses and the heartache of the stories that group of people have in common, we now have a new story of connection - a tremendous story about the power of hope when it is shared amongst friends.

Pink Tie Ball Against the Current

S

usan G. Komen Louisville went “Against the Current” this year by moving their signature gala to a new home – the historic Seelbach Hilton Hotel.

The 11th annual Pink Tie Ball kept with this year’s theme by including the lighthouse motif throughout their décor, including on wine bottles at every table, signifying the light in the distance that is a world eradicated of breast cancer.

The elegant event, held the weekend before October, now universally acknowledged as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, was sponsored by Kentucky One Health and Delta Dental and boasted signature cocktails and entertainment by the Louisville Crashers. The evening, traditionally punctuated with shades of pink, brought together medical professionals, volunteers and survivors surrounded by friends and family. Of the money raised at Pink Tie Ball, 75 percent will benefit the local community with breast health education, screenings and treatment support, while 25 percent will fund breast cancer research.

This year marked a notable anniversary for the organization’s more casual signature fundraiser as The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Louisville celebrated 20 years and raised over $235,000. All of these efforts can be traced to a promise made by Nancy G. Brinker, to her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever, thus launching the global breast cancer movement.

Whether you go with the flow or swim against the current, make plans to attend next year’s Pink Tie Ball on October 22, to help fulfill that promise.

Butterflies in Motion Butterfly Society Soars for Heuser Hearing Institute

L

ibby Parkinson and Deborah Greenwald redefined the fundraiser luncheon as Co-Chairs of Butterflies in Motion. This inventive afternoon, which invited table hosts to base their table décor on a movie, paid tribute to Heuser’s Hollywood connection 70 years ago. In 1945 Mrs. Spencer Tracy spoke to the Woman’s Club of Louisville about the challenges of educating her deaf son, Jon, inspiring them to partner with the Kiwanis Club to found The Louisville Deaf Oral School, now known as Heuser Hearing and Language Academy. The school opened with three students and today helps more than 150 preschool and kindergarten children every year.

The champagne reception kicked off at the historic Brown Hotel while guests browsed the Confessions of a Shopaholic Boutique. WAVE 3’s Kevin Harned and Brad Broecker kept guests competitively bidding on movie themed packages. Pretty Woman included an evening gown by red carpet designer Christian Siriano, while Dial M For Murder bought you the priceless opportunity to have your name forever immortalized as a character in the next mystery novel by New York Times Best Selling Author, Sue Grafton.

All the classic characters were in attendance from Gone with the Wind, The Godfather and The Wizard of Oz, while others took a more contemporary approach with tables designed in tribute to UP and Snow White and the Huntsman. Louisville’s International Festival of Film’s table even had the stars of the movie Tremors, Conrad Bachmann and Michael Gross as guests. The Oscar for Best Table Design went to Lindy Street for Out of Africa.

The most important acknowledgment of the evening was the Spirit of Sug Award, named for Sug Schusterman, who contributed to the growth and wellbeing of Hueser students for more than 20 years. This year’s recipient, with a passion for public service, was Madeline Abramson. Accepting the award dressed like a lion as a guest of the Out of Africa table, Madeline joked, “I’m a little embarrassed to be standing up here in a wig and face paint to accept an award named after such a fashionable lady, but I remind myself that Sug would do anything for Hueser, and I like to think that she would approve.”

rom Thrivals 8.0: Humans and the Rise of Artificial Intelligence to IdeaFestival’s Taste at Copper and Kings, and presenters including artists from Creative Capital, the 2015 IdeaFestival engaged a broad spectrum of audiences including students from a myriad of local high schools, educators, entrepreneurs and industry leaders.

Changes for the year included the addition of Club IF which featured music

by Teddy Abrams and Larkin Poe, and Ideas Night Out, a series of dinners at local eateries from Lilly’s to Milkwood with IF speakers.

Kicking off the second day of IdeaFestival at the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts, Mayor Fischer welcomed attendees saying, “What I love about IdeaFestival is that we keep innovating and getting bigger and better every year.”

This year’s Taste utilized all three floors of Copper and Kings along with the expansive outdoor entertainment area, with guests enjoying bourbon and bites as the sunset before Orange Fork Awards were presented to organizations and individuals who embody the spirit of promoting a sustainable food system with uncompromising excellence and tireless effort, including Karyn Moskowitz of New Roots and Susan Hershberg and Wiltshire Pantry.

Mark your calendars for IdeaFestival 2016 which will run from September 27-30!

1-N-3 Gala Lifting the Mask on Neurological Disorders Tracy Eicher, Laura Wissing, Pattie Ellis

T

he Norton Healthcare Foundation lifted fundraising efforts to new heights with the 11th annual 1-N-3 Gala by surprising guests with aerial acrobatics from the troupe Suspend Louisville. Aerialists twirled at a height of over twenty feet amid long ribbons of shimmery silks, while guests dined below all in an effort to support the Norton Neuroscience Institute’s Resource Center.

This masquerade-themed event proved anything but typical as guests enjoyed a rotation of colorful surprises from brightly dyed ostrich plumes in illuminated vases to appetizers served in color-changing bowls. Masked and unmasked minglers alike spent the cocktail hour prospecting silent auction items but the tone of the event was quickly set when the skirt-shaking salsa dancing of All That Dance welcomed guests into the ballroom. The energetic live auction and contagious rhythms of the band Pangea continued the festivity through the evening.

While the event offered merriment, the reality behind the importance of the gala rests in its name: “1-N-3” referencing the knowledge that one in three people will be diagnosed with some form of neurological disorder during their lifetime.

Those numbers alone immediately clarify the need for the Norton Neuroscience Institute’s Resource Center. The Resource Center serves those diagnosed with a neurological disorder and their families by providing an individualized path of assistance in navigating the future through a myriad of resources.

This year’s honoree, Mrs. Katie Deppe, a patient of Dr. Brian Plato, provided insight into neurological maladies through her personal story of enduring migraines and epilepsy. To meet Mrs. Deppe, one is saturated with her kindness and bright smile. While Dr. Plato explained how her migraines are under good control now through effective management, she serves as an important reminder that not all illnesses or disorders are visible to others at all times.

ouisville answered the call once again when Nfocus asked for nominations for this year’s New Faces of Philanthropy. The task of narrowing down the pool of qualified candidates to only five is unenviable every year. In a city full of innovative, ambitious and compassionate young professionals, it is not difficult to find one intent on leaving the world a better place than how they found it. What is perhaps a bit more challenging is finding the few who are making that difference in creative and inclusive ways; using their time, talent and treasure to create effective change for one of the vast number of nonprofits that are often forced to compete for the same donation dollars.

This year’s outstanding class represent nonprofits new and old. From newly formed organizations [give] 502 and Color Your City, Inc. to the recently merged Uspiritus,

14 >> NOVEMBER 2015 | NewFaces_2015.indd 14

you can read about the new solutions that are a result of these fresh concepts. Also represented in this class are organizations who practices have stood the test of time to become Louisville charitable institutions and the young women who are working to assure they continue to succeed in meeting the needs of the underserved.

We must acknowledge with gratitude our partner in this endeavor, the Community Foundation of Louisville, the largest charitable foundation in Kentucky. While these pages represent only five worthy nonprofits, the Community Foundation of Louisville has such an incredible impact on so many others in our state. Much like our New Faces of Philanthropy, their efforts assure that these organizations can thrive in their efforts to do good work.

You can read more about their remarkable success with Give. Local. Louisville on page 44.

Kate Biagi-Rickert St. J o se p h ’ s Ch i ldre n ’ s Ho m e

K

ate knew from a young age that she wanted to work with a nonprofit and give back to others. “I think it was my parent’s influence,” she shares. “My mom is a nurse who always nurtured people and my dad was a business owner. I wanted to combine those things and help nonprofits through administration.” That dream led her to St. Louis University where she obtained dual degrees in social work and business and then to Columbia University for two Master’s Degree in Social Work and Non-Profit Management. She remained in New York City for two years after graduate school working for the largest after school program in the city, then moved to Illinois University to be the Director of an AmeriCorp Program called Jumpstart. The lure of family and home encouraged her to look back to Kentucky where she found a position at St. Joe’s and hit the ground running.

St. Joe’s serves the most abused and neglected girls and boys from all over Kentucky in their Residential Treatment Program and Therapeutic Foster Care and Adoption Program. They are 92% successful in finding “forever families” for them, compared to the State’s 64% success rate. Kate oversees 3,000 volunteers each year in addition to coordinating the Christmas, Easter, birthday and wish list collections. Of course, she also works tirelessly on special projects like the massively popular St. Joe’s Picnic. She is noted for her ability to seek out new perspectives by joining fundraising groups and teaming with other nonprofit leaders to support their cause and learn from them, and using that

information to improve St. Joe’s.

Kate is always thinking of ways to market and improve St. Joe’s through volunteer participation in order to sustain the legacy for years to come. She shares, “What I love about St. Joe’s the most is that it is rooted in the community. It has been around for 166 years and could be here for 166 more. While there is a great base of support in this community, not everyone knows about our mission and about the children who live here. I work hard to raise awareness by meeting with businesses and schools and anyone who wants to help out a great organization dealing with child abuse.”

Kate uniquely understands how vulnerable St. Joe’s children are and how to connect them with volunteers who are sensitive to their needs. “Most of these children are unable to be returned to biological homes because of the extent of their abuse and trauma. It is so rewarding to see a child who has suffered so much neglect find a wonderful foster home and then, ultimately enter the adoption process.”

As of this year the children of St. Joe’s moved to four new residential cottages directly behind the landmark building allowing them to serve 20% more children annually giving them the therapy they need to be successful with their forever families. Kate says, “We are thrilled to have that expansion and be able to serve those children. We look forward to continuing to evolve and help those children in our community.”

Ashley Duncan St. G e o rge ’ s Sch o l ar I nsti tute

A

shley Duncan is in demand these days. Her desire to make Louisville a better place keeps her very busy and highly focused. In fact, her aptitude for effective multitasking played a large part in scheduling a photo shoot and interview with her despite being due to give birth to her first child any day. She is continually motivated to try harder, do more and make it better. These efforts can be credited for her recent selection as a Business First 2015 Top 40 Under 40 honoree and is also why she advanced through the local, regional and state Rising Flame Competition of which she won each and is currently leading the 2015 competition held

by Business Professional Women River City. Her loyalty can be demonstrated through her employment at TARC where she is the Civil Rights Program Manager and where she has worked since she was an intern.

She’s not the kind of person who does any of it for awards or recognition, but because leading by example and excellence are innate to who she is. As a participant in Focus Louisville in 2008, a program facilitated by Leadership Louisville Center, she was invited to tour St. George’s Scholar Institute and visit the kids there. From that initial introduction, she knew she wanted to be a volunteer, and is now on the Board of Directors. “One thing that impressed me right away was the level of energy and fun these kids have. It can be sad when you realize the backgrounds they come from, but they don’t seem to know that. They’re fun, happy and energetic and they are striving to go to college and make education a priority,” Ashley says of her initial impression.

The mission of St. George’s is to “launch youth into flights of self-discovery while creating oppor-

tunities that will impact their lives for the benefit of our community.” Ashley says what they don’t want to be, is Louisville’s best kept secret. “We’re not a community center, which is a common misconception. We are a place where kids can come if they’re making bad grades and they don’t understand what the teacher is saying, we will embrace them, educate them and empower them and let them know that we are here to help them.” St. George’s is always in need of volunteers to educate students, many of whom English is their second language. Volunteers to work in the garden is another need. Ashley said, “we need people to show these kids how to make their garden great and show them, literally, what the fruits of labor can look like.”

Ashley was instrumental in redirecting the signature fundraiser from an event with poor exposure and financial support to a breakfast that secured Mayor Fischer as Honorary Chair with 200 guests.

Challenging the way things have always been done is a hallmark of her leadership style noted in her nomination: “Ashley demonstrates innovation through her bold approach to asking the hard questions.” She is not one to accept the response, “But we’ve always done it this way.” She brings that fresh perspective to other organizations like Junior League of Louisville where she serves as Diversity Advisor and New Roots where she is also a volunteer.

Her ultimate motivation is for more community members to become a part of the transformative place that is St. George’s. “These kids are part of our community. Not your community, not their community, but our community,” Ashley believes. For more information on St. George’s Scholar Institute, please visit stgeorgesky.org.

Daniel Mudd [g i v e ] 502

I

n 2013, ten civically minded young professionals decided to join forces to create, what they refer to as, venture philanthropy. Based on a model in Indianapolis called Giving Sum, they created [give] 502 and what they have been able to accomplish in two short years, is impactful and impressive. Daniel Mudd was influential in the start of the organization and has worked tirelessly to grow it to approximately 50 members who have managed to give away $44,000 to local nonprofits.

Daniel recalls, “I was on the board of YPAL and was looking for something new on the nonprofit side when I was approached by C.F. Callihan about the prospect of starting this group in order to work towards one cause and make a transformative impact on our local community through collective grant-making.” Of those original “Founding Leaders” three others, in addition to Daniel, remain in the organization – Lindsey Ransdell, Emma Brown and Scott Herman. “Those individuals deserve every bit as credit as I do for all that [give 502] strives to do,” he acknowledges.

The concept is that every member contributes $502 dollars that they can pool together to give to one local nonprofit. “If you gave $500 of your own money to the nonprofit of your choice, that would be great, but it’s so much more rewarding to have the major impact that we are able to have with our collective giving.” Every local nonprofit is eligible to apply for the grant. The first year, the group received 39 applications and by the second year that number had almost doubled to 69.

Based on his legal expertise, Daniel designed the grants process and recently completed a year-long chair of the grants committee. “We solicit applications from

various local organizations and then rank them in a series of meetings to determine which one will receive the final grant from [give] 502,” Daniel explains. “Once the final six organizations are selected, I lead the grants committee in site visits for all our members to get tours of the site and learn more about each organization.”

He remains intentional in keeping [give] 502 members focused on the grant review criteria and being objective and is careful not to advocate for the organizations that he finds most closely aligns to his personal passions.

The first recipient of a $20,000 grant was The Cabbage Patch Settlement House and the group just experienced the satisfaction of reviewing the report of that funding. He explains, “The grants we give are to new innovative programs, or pilot ideas. Cabbage Patch provides services to at-risk kids throughout the week, but they wanted to extend those services to the weekend. In the past year, with our grant, they have served 116 children through their weekend program and have taken 38 field trips around Kentucky, giving some of these kids the chance to experience something they wouldn’t be able to on their own.”

With a goal of extending their membership so that they would be able to achieve a $50,000 grant, Daniel looks forward to the impact [give] 502 can have on local charities like Paws with Purpose, their most recent grant recipient. An attorney at Frost Brown Todd (and soon to be first-time dad), he credits his parents for setting an example and his firm for supporting his community activism. Daniel is a rising star in our community who personifies what it means to be a New Face of Philanthropy. To join him in these efforts, learn more about [give] 502 at give502.org.

Curry Nicholson Uspiritus

C

ontinuity is important when it comes to nonprofit board memberships, but it can be rare as members roll on and off fulfilling their terms and moving on to another. Uspiritus has a special advocate in Curry Nicholson who, at a young age, has been actively involved in the organization for seven years and at the board level for six, providing oversight and governance. Curry acknowledges that it takes time to truly understand the mission and structure of a nonprofit and to fully understand how you can best help them deliver that mission.

Born and raised in Anchorage, Kentucky, Curry was aware of the services at Bellewood Home for Children from an early age, going to school with many children who lived there. When he moved back to Kentucky to start a business after living in Colorado for a number of years, it was a natural fit for him to get involved with the organization. “As I started to work with local endowments, individual donors and those in the faith community, what I started to hear is that they felt some of these nonprofits were duplicating services but weren’t achieving any economies of scale. Everyone had their own administrative and overhead expenses.”

With the help of other board members, he identified an opportunity to create a more efficient continuum of care for the vulnerable youth of the Commonwealth and streamlined operations to ensure future financial viability. On 12.12.12, Bellewood took on the massive undertaking of merging with Broooklawn Child and Family Services to form Uspiritus, and since that time Curry has been key in navigating the process and leading fundraising efforts. In his role as Chair of the Advancement Committee, his team was responsible for raising $1.1M in 2015 and is on track to raise $1.2M+ in 2016. His work ensures that children served through the program are able to enjoy some of the same experiences as all children.

Curry is masterful at event coordination. Among others, he’s been responsible for Renew the Spirit break-

fast, the annual Links of Love golf scramble and worked with his business partner, Rob Davenport, of Kentucky Planning Partners, to build the Louisville Concours D’Elegance. In Bowling Green, he worked on behalf of Bellewood to help produce, Bellewoodstock, a talent show featuring and benefiting the kids. He also assisted in bringing Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence to Louisville to premiere her Oscar-nominated film, Winter’s Bone to benefit Bellewood. Most recently, he leveraged his network to position Uspiritus as the beneficiary of the International Interior Design Association’s Product Runway fundraiser in October 2015 and as beneficiary of Cabo Wabo’s Winter Coat Party in January 2016. These two events combined are expected to bring in $100,000 in additional contributions to support the agency’s mission.

Curry has been courageous on behalf of Uspiritus by seeking funding from the state government, demanding change to the child welfare system in Frankfort, and defending the interests that are not always popular.

He served as an advocate for Uspiritus during a recent lawsuit with the City of Anchorage. Since he was born and raised in Anchorage, he was able to provide access to the community leaders of the city and work with concerned citizens to create a better understanding of the children served and promote a safer environment for both parties.

In addition to the hundreds of hours Curry has volunteered to secure financial contributions to support the Uspiritus mission, he has led by example, giving generously of his own resources. “Giving back,” he says, “is the highest calling an individual can answer if you are in a position where you are fortunate enough to help others. My parents are in inspiration to me in that regard.” His unwavering support and interaction with those served at Uspiritus has been crucial to the positive interaction they seek for those children entrusted to their care.

Austin Whitely C o lo r Yo ur Ci t y, In c .

A

ustin is an extraordinary man with an inspiring story. He is a musician and an artist with an instinctive desire to create and a passion for encouraging others to do the same. When he was a teen, while his mother worked third shift, he would host jam sessions at his house as a creative outlet. Then tragedy stuck his family when he was 18 with the passing of his brother, triggering a self-described “downward spiral” of drug abuse and incarceration. Following court ordered rehabilitation, he was able to get his life back on track after his time at The Healing Place, a move that he credits for saving him.

“One of the things people say when they are newly sober is that they are bored,” he shares of life after rehab.

“I needed something rewarding to do with my time to help me get everything out. It is hard for people to reintegrate into society especially if it’s known that they have been incarcerated. People are quick to judge you as a ‘junky fellow’, or thee ‘untouchables of society.’” That is when Austin found Color Your City, Inc., a substance abuse prevention and recovery charity in Bullitt County working to provide local residents the tools they need to create art and outlets to share their work. He aligned with their belief in the transformative and healing power of the arts, and now, as the Events Coordinator for the organization, he is making a major impact on the city.

Austin was instrumental in launching the Homegrown Art, Music and Spoken Word Show, a bimonthly open mic and arts exhibition series held at Cedar Grove Coffee Shop in Shepherdsville. “People don’t always associate Bullitt County with artists, but we have some incredible musicians and poets here. These events make those circle of people more apparent so that those who are newly sober can be introduced to

them and join those circles of creativity,” Austin hopes.

He also facilitates the CYC Touchable Art Contest and participation in CONNECT at Bernheim Forest and Arboretum Center. “Usually art is a one-way street.

It’s hung up on a wall to enjoy and discuss, but you can’t touch it. I wanted to make art a two-way street where it isn’t complete until you have physically interacted with it, until you’ve moved it, or touched it. Maybe you are what it needs to be complete,” he shares of the exhibit.

Finally, Austin has been vital in promoting the Art for Inmates Recovery Program which provides weekly workshops for inmates enrolled in the Substance Abuse Program (SAP) at the Bullitt County Detention Center.

In addition to writing and drawing prompts on themes that affect recovery efforts, he helped facilitate an art and writing exchange between SAP inmates and community volunteers by creating and maintain an online gallery of inmates’ works.

“Before I was sober, it was hard for me to put the final stamp of approval on something I created. Nothing was ever finished,” he says. He finds reward in finished projects now. In fact, he and his father are creating a recording studio for the organization. “Thinking you can do something, knowing you can do it and then actually doing it, is huge for those in recovery.”

Austin has been referred to as a role model and a beacon of hope and courage for young people struggling from substance abuse and a troubled past. Of that label he says, “With the nature of drug addiction, I never want anyone to put me on a pedestal, but if I can do something that inspires someone – I live for that. I just want to be seen as a friend and an equal. I can only offer my experience. We’re all just sums of our experience.”

Meet Forrest

What brought you to Iron Tribe?

I was drawn to Iron Tribe by the sincerity and enthusiasm I felt from the coaches. Every one of them genuinely care about each of the athletes and want nothing but the best for them both in and out of the gym. The coaches and the members have become part of my family.

What changes have you seen since becoming an Iron Tribe Athlete?

I’ve seen amazing changes in my appearance, but that’s not the only thing. After living here for over 2 years, I still did not feel like I belonged anywhere. Since I have started at Iron Tribe, I have made connections and bonds with people I now call my family. The bonds that are built when you are pushing yourself farther than you thought you were once able to is amazing. Being challenged in the gym has enabled me to push myself harder in life as well, and to push outside of my comfort zone.

BEFORE

AFTER

WE ARE MORE THAN A GYM,

WE ARE A TRIBE OF ATHLETES

What else has helped you to become the best version of yourself?

My nutrition has also been a huge part of my physical transformation. The coaching and help I receive from the tribe with my nutrition has made such a difference in my energy levels and overall well being. It is extremely helpful that the tribe offers nutritious and delicious meals that get delivered that helps out with my busy schedule!

What would you like to tell any prospective Tribe athletes?

Never underestimate yourself and your abilities! No matter how intimidating the workout looks, we all started right where you are and to this day still look at the workouts some days and get a little nervous. Never forget you are not alone in any of these workouts! No one finishes last and we are all in this together!

Barb Millhollan, Louisville’s YMCA LIVESTRONG Program Director, puts the program into words she once received from a thank you letter: “It is a club that no one wants to join, but once you’re in, you never want to leave.”

LIVESTRONG at the YMCA is a twelve-week cancer survivorship program designed to directly benefit those who have been impacted by cancer, along with their family members. The program is offered to all survivors in our Greater Louisville area at six YMCA locations. These sessions are designed to help each individual through the transitional period between cancer treatment and the shift to feeling physically and emotionally strong enough to return to their lives.

Participants and their families receive a complimentary three-month membership, along with specific classes and programming geared toward rebuilding muscle, strength, endurance and emotional health.

LIVESTRONG looks to empower those fighting the fight. Each twelve week session includes group settings of water aerobics, cycling, walking, weight training, and stretching. Our goal is to help the survivor find their new normal where they are physically fit and able to accomplish daily tasks important to them. Some may want to have endurance to grocery shop, others to run a marathon, and we can get them there. It’s functional

exercise for daily living, whether you are 18 or 80. The beauty of this program is that it is personalized to the survivor.

Along with training, LIVESTRONG offers “Lunch and Learn” sessions covering important topics related to cancer and it’s side effects. Local hospitals and medical professionals provide specialists to speak on topics such as Lymphedema Basics, Emotional Health after Treatment, and Intimacy after Chemotherapy. We welcome the public at our seminars.

A onetime grant given from the Lance Armstrong Foundation got the program started eight years ago.

Today, LIVESTRONG is funded solely through donations. “It is sustained by the goodness and generosity of our community,” Millhollan said. “Our community has a big heart.” LIVESTRONG receives a majority of their donations through the Annual Giving Campaign.

“The most rewarding thing is to know that you are helping survivors recover - all of our LIVESTRONG coordinators feel this way,” Millhollan said. While we are focused on helping and training others, we have reaped benefits as well, by learning from them. “Cancer survivors see life differently after they are diagnosed.

They don’t sweat the small stuff, and they take every day as a gift.”

Camaradarie, volunteering and group outings are

common among our survivors. Being in a supportive group makes recovery after treatment a little easier.

“We’re a family,” Millhollan said. A family that is growing larger. By year end our sixth LIVESTRONG location will open at 930 West Chestnut Street, broadening Louisville’s supportive reach.

For enrollment in the LIVESTRONG program or to make donations contact your local YMCA, 502-587-9622 or livestrong@ymcalouisville.org.

The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.

Thanks to its volunteers, financial supporters and community partners, the Red Cross responds to disasters 24 hours a day, 365 days a year; reduces the impact of disasters through preparedness education; empowers people with lifesaving training in the workplace, classroom and online; supports military families with emergency communications and other services; and supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood supply.

We provide humanitarian services throughout Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Nearly 2,500 volunteers dedicate themselves to meet people’s immediate disaster-caused needs for food, clothing, shelter and emotional support. Our teams respond to nearly

800 disasters annually, the most common disaster being home fires, and assist more than 2,800 people.

In addition to disaster relief, we reach more than 28,000 people in our communities through preparedness presentations and lifesaving training such as CPR and First Aid. The Red Cross in Louisville is also home to one of four military emergency call centers in the world.

Trained caseworkers help military members and their families in times of emergency; we also provide emotional support through a variety of programs at Ft. Knox.

Our incredible network of volunteers, donors and partners helps turn compassion into action every day.

Their devotion, generosity of spirit and compassion is what has kept Red Cross strong for more than 130 years.

Boys & Girls Haven was founded in 1950 by Father James C. Maloney to help struggling young men in our community. Since then, Boys & Girls Haven has taken in more than 5,000 abused and neglected youth from across the state of Kentucky and given them a home and a future.

Our mission is to shelter, heal and teach struggling young people to become productive and healthy members of our community. We do this through an array of programs that include Residential Treatment, Therapeutic Foster Care, In-home Services, Vocational Training, and Pre-Independent Living.

At Boys and Girls Haven, we change children’s lives. We heal the scars left by abuse and neglect. We teach struggling youth to be successful as they embark on lives of independence.

Too many children aging out of foster care find themselves adrift in adulthood with limited resources and nowhere to turn for help. We provide

(502) 589-4450 | www.redcross.org/louisville

therapy, stability, and education for our community’s most vulnerable children and young adults.

In the United States, an estimated 65% of former foster youth end up homeless after they have aged out of the foster care system, and a remarkable 77% of youth end up incarcerated. Boys & Girls Haven works to vastly reduce the chances of that risk for each of our youth. By providing them with the tools they need to ensure that they lead healthy and productive lives, we are also helping to provide the community with productive and healthy adults.

You can help Boys & Girls Haven by making an investment in our kids.

Each financial gift helps build a new path filled with hope and success.

Becoming a mentor or a foster parent, volunteering, and advocating for at-risk youth in our community are also wonderful ways to contribute to our mission

Twisted Pink is a 501c3 charitable organization that is changing the way a cure to breast cancer will be found.

The mission of Twisted Pink is to fund metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer research, while exposing the hidden statistics of metastatic breast cancer. Twisted Pink is a volunteer driven organization founded by a stage III breast cancer survivor who wanted to see more funding to research that will help save lives to breast cancer.

GET THE FACTS: Metastatic Breast Cancer is cancer that has spread from the original site, the breast, to another part of the body. Breast cancer is most likely to metastasize, or spread, to the brain, bone, liver or lungs. Metastatic breast cancer is diagnosed as stage IV breast cancer and there is no cure.

The following facts are based on U.S. population: • Metastatic Breast Cancer is the leading cause of death in women 35-55 years of age.

• It is estimated that 155,000 women are living with metastatic breast cancer.

• 40,000 women will die this year from metastatic breast cancer. A statistic that hasn’t changed much in 30 years.

• The average length of survival of metastatic breast cancer is 2-3 years.

• 20-30% of early stage breast cancer patients will experience metastasis.

Since opening our doors in June 2014, Twisted Pink has raised and gifted $100,000 to metastatic breast cancer research. This money was raised at our largest fundraiser of the year, The Twisted Pink Masquerade Ball.

The 2016 event is scheduled for Saturday, February 13th at The Gillespie. The event includes a silent and lives auction, dinner and dancing to Tyrone Smith Revue. 6 p.m. to Midnight. Cost is $175 per ticket. More information can be found on our website at www. twistedpink.org

“Decreased funding in research has an exponential affect on the ability to treat/cure diseases common and rare. I have championed this idea to many of my peers and politicians, but the problems with lack of funding continue to plague the research community in every facet of disease study and drug design. I have often said that our communities cannot change until we all join together to make it so (no matter what IT is). You have done just that, and I am proud to have seen an organization take root that not only is inspirational and motivational to survivors/fighters, but is trying to support the very community that has the vision to change the future of metastatic breast cancer treatments. In short, your organization IS hope. Hope for better tomorrows.”

As one of the region’s oldest, largest and most diverse human services organizations, Volunteers of America Mid-States creates positive change in the lives of individuals and communities through a ministry of service.

By serving those who need help the most, we play a critical role in community change—filling important gaps for those who would otherwise be overlooked including individuals and families who have some of the most complex challenges.

Reaching more than 23,000 people each year across our five-state region, Volunteers of America provides fully-accredited services for families experiencing homelessness; residential addiction recovery treatment; job placement and homeless prevention for veterans; HIV prevention services; comprehensive residential services for people with developmental disabilities; and housing for seniors with low-incomes.

Earlier this year Volunteers of America celebrated the 100th healthy baby born to a resident at our Freedom House program. Baby 100 wasn’t the only good news, as babies 98, 99 and 100 were all born on the very same day! Myliah, Azaryah and Major (pictured above) were all born healthy and drug-free because their mothers

sought services for their addiction and received our life-saving, clinical services. Freedom House is one of only two long-term, residential addiction recovery programs for pregnant and parenting women and their children in Kentucky. Our goals to help mothers establish healthy pregnancies and to delivery healthy babies are as equally critical as providing mothers with the tools to lead sober, healthy lives. Our program offers individual, group and family counseling; drug and alcohol dependency education; parenting classes; life skills training; nutrition classes; vocational training; employment training; and child care services.

Myliah, Azaryah and Major, along with their mothers, are thriving and most importantly receiving services together at our Freedom House program. For every healthy, drug-free baby born to a mother receiving services, Volunteers of America has saved the community at least $250,000 by preventing numerous developmental and health complications related to their mothers’ drug and alcohol dependency. With 100 babies born drug-free to women in our program, that’s an estimated $25 million in positive financial impact for our community.

With opiate addiction on the rise and the high rate of maternal addiction in Kentucky, Freedom House needs the support of this community now more than ever. Join us in our mission! Help us ensure a fresh start for the mothers we serve and ensure healthy starts to life for the newborns we serve, like Myliah, Azaryah and Major.

Learn more about Freedom House at www.voamid.org/WomensRecovery.

Join us for an upcoming Real³ Journey, a one-hour engaging tour that demonstrates how we help real people facing real challenges to find real and lasting solutions. Visit www.voamid.org/journey for upcoming dates.

Your support helps Volunteers of America create positive change in the lives of individuals and communities through a ministry of service.

Since 1989, Olmsted Parks Conservancy has raised funds to restore, enhance and forever protect Louisville’s Frederick Law Olmsted Parks and Parkways: 18 urban parks and 6 tree-lined parkways designed

by Frederick Law Olmsted and his design firm more than 120 years ago.

Located throughout Metro Louisville, these green spaces are our health clubs, art studios, outdoor classrooms, sports facilities and gathering places. They play a vital role in the city’s health and well-being, and provide common ground for celebrating cultural diversity.

Whether restoring historic pavilions, training volunteer leaders, solving erosion issues, or building walk-

ways, Olmsted Parks Conservancy carries out necessary park projects that ensure environmental protection, community well-being and historic preservation. Keeping the Olmsted Parks and Parkways extraordinary takes hard work, generosity and community support. It’s why the Conservancy relies on private donors to help fill the gap, where the city budget does not stretch, and provide the special attention our historic parks require and deserve. An investment in parks and recreation is for the health, stability and beauty of our neighborhoods, and the return yields tangible benefits for all of Metro Louisville.

Please consider making your gift to Olmsted Parks Conservancy today!

Walden Theatre and Blue Apple Players merged in January to integrate complementary strengths & create the region’s largest, most comprehensive arts education and theatre training program.

Extracurricular classes in the renowned Conservatory challenge youth with fun, intensive training in acting, stagecraft, and more during Spring/Fall terms—and $25,000 in tuition assistance annually ensures income is no barrier to participation.

CHARITY SPOTLIGHT

Louisville Public Media

A

fter a beautiful summer enjoying cool notes resonating off the Ohio River’s shore, Louisvillians have one organization in which to bestow the gratitude.

Louisville Public Media (LPM) is the umbrella operator of three unique format medias that carve Louisville’s music scene. From procuring rising stars to playing classical music prodigies, LPM has gifted Louisville in more ways than radio hits. Director of Development, Layla George said, “Because 89.3, 90.5 and 91.9 all operate under one body of leaders, our public media is the most fiscally responsible, making sure funds are stretched to benefit the community to their fullest.”

Each station provides unique benefits according to their individual missions. The mission of LPM as a whole is to educate, connect and engage our community not just with each other, but with the world. 89.3 WFPL News keeps Louisville aware with an ancillary staff of 15 reporters that dominate matters local, national and international. Unlike most modern outlets, LPM investigative beat reporters shine light on injustices to create a more cognizant city. This year LPM exceeded their membership goal, raising 402k instead of 400k, making LPM one of the strongest public media stations in the country.

“This allowed us to grow, adding staff to the newsroom and classical music station. We added investigative beats which very few news organizations do anymore. We are in the middle of a capital campaign to make funds for digital technology, mobile apps, things we should create to make sure content reaches the biggest audience,” George said.

In addition to scooping news like Woodward and Bernstein, LPM places a great emphasis on art and education through 90.5 WUOL and 91.9 WFPK. WUOL’s focus is empowering students to be avid consumers of classical music and therefore, better learners. They tackle this mission with community outreach programs sponsored by PNC Bank and the Young Artist Competition that grants winning students a cash prize as well as air time.

Though it will be a few more months until we can assemble at Waterfront Park in the heat of a Kentucky summer, WFPK has worked diligently to provide Louisville opportunities to enjoy good music. Visit wfpk.org to see the upcoming lineups and maybe stop in the studio for an upcoming “Live Lunch” show. In order to keep Louisville Public Media one of the best public medias in the nation, you can do your part by emailing membership@louisvillepublicmedia.org to become a supporting member.

WHAT PINK MAKES POSSIBLE Susan G. Komen has invested more than $889 million into breast cancer research.

Metastatic breast cancer research has comprised approximately 16% of Komen’s overall research investments. We have invested $147 million to metastatic research, funding 377 research grants specifically into metastatic disease. In 2015, about 50% of our new research grants are focused on metastatic research, bringing our number of active metastatic research grants to 60.

Susan G. Komen Louisville and Norton Cancer Institute share a comprehensive approach to fighting breast cancer – we know that to reduce death from breast cancer requires a mixture of science, education and direct help & support to people facing the disease.

NC Bank has been supporting Louisville Public Media for over a decade now, but has served the community in a number of service projects for over 150 years.

The support they donate extends beyond dollars thanks to a policy that permits 40 hours a year of paid time off to volunteer. Employees who fulfill the 40 hours with a qualified nonprofit early education program earn a $1,000 grant for the education center in their name.

PNC Bank sponsored educational outreach programs use Louisville Public Media’s 90.5 WUOL as a catalyst for reaching and teaching young listeners. A PNC sponsored representative visits public schools, KY Refugee Ministries, Bernheim Forest and other communities to perform music for students. This outreach program challenges students to develop a love of classical music by posing questions that encourage students to consider why they like the music they like and how they can find these elements in classical music.

Further encouraging this mentality is the Instrumental Partners Program. John Grantz, LPM Senior Corporate Marketing Representative said of the PNC sponsored program, “In the past few years PNC has really stepped up to the plate with the Instrumental Partners Program, which helps put instruments in the

hands of students that otherwise might not be able to obtain them.”

Grantz said, “This gives them opportunity for growth in the arts as well as STEM programs by the sheer fact that music helps stimulate brain function when it comes to math and engineering. Not only are they helping in the arts, but they are helping in the STEM programs as well.”

This program relies on the community to donate unused musical instruments and with help from PNC bank to refurbish these instruments, 500-600 students enjoy the opportunity to learn by doing. LPM’s Director of Development, Layla George said, “So many people have instruments in their attics that they don’t play anymore and they don’t know what to do with. If everyone knew of this program, we know more people would donate.” You can take part by emailing education@louisvillepublicmedia.org with your name and description of your instruments and volunteers can retrieve the instrument from your home.

Grantz said, “PNC is a good partner in the overall community and a good fit for Louisville Public Media.”

Check out Louisville Public Media’s website to see how you can support or utilize the programs PNC Bank is enabling for the Louisville community, in partnership with Louisville Public Media.

CHAT WITH THE CHAIR

Carrie Pytynia Sneaker Ball 2015: Special Olympics Kentucky

banyantreechai.com

OPEN HOUSE. Wednesday, November 11 @ 6:30 p.m.

Downtown, High School

W

hen she first relocated to Louisville in 2011, Carrie Pytynia, an attorney with Frost Brown Todd, didn’t know a soul, but knew she wanted to get involved with the community. Having previously volunteered for the Special Olympics, she reached out to the local Chairman of the Board at the time, Dr. Matt Holder who expressed that they were currently looking for someone with a legal background. That perfect timing allowed her to join the Board where she has been an active member and volunteer since. This year, she chairs the Sneaker Ball (previously known as Inspire Greatness Gala). Carrie chatted with us about the new name but the same great cause.

You have a new concept this year. How did that come about?

For the past few years, we have encouraged our gala attendees to wear tennis shoes with their formal wear in an effort to “bring out the athlete in all of us.” This year, we decided to further tie the tennis shoe concept to our mission of providing athletic opportunities for individuals with intellectual disabilities. We hope that the name will remind our guests of the cause they are supporting and allow them to wear comfortable footwear and step into the shoes of our athletes.

What does the night have in store for guests?

This year is the 45th anniversary of Special Olympics Kentucky, so our programming is focused on where we’ve been, where we are, and where we are going. Our video presentation will highlight three families that have been actively involved in Special Olympics Kentucky during three different time

periods over the last 45 years. It’s truly amazing to see how views of individuals with intellectual disabilities have changed and the opportunities that are now available for our athletes that would never have been dreamed of 45 years ago. We can almost promise there won’t be a dry eye in the house!

Explain what the funds raised from this event directly benefit.

Tuesday, November 17 @ 9:00 a.m.

Goshen, Preschool 8th grade

We’re Open, Are You?

502.736.1000 StFrancisSchool.org www.StFrancisSchool.org

The funds raised at the Sneaker Ball will support the sports training and competition programs that serve our athletes. In addition, the funds will support our Healthy Athletes initiatives, which provides complimentary vision and dental screenings for athletes. Third, funds will be used to support our Project Unify program that helps to promote acceptance of individuals with intellectual disabilities within local schools. By leveling the playing field, kids are able to see how our athletes are similar to them rather than how they are different.

I hear there is a way to get involved even if you cannot attend.

The golden ticket concept allows our supporters, whether they are attending the event or not, to purchase a golden ticket for $100. Only 150 of the golden tickets will be sold and the winner gets to select any one of our live auction items as their prize. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased at www.soky.org!

LVA Finds a New Home Circa 1986

A

s part of the Water Tower Art Association (Now Louisville Visual Art) exhibit, Collaborative Effort, five local artists created installations with notable artists from outside the region. Here, Sam Gilliam (Washington D. C.), works with University of Louisville faculty John Whitesell with the assistance of UofL students Deborah Stratford and Mark Priest (now UofL faculty).

Much has changed since this collaboration almost 30 years ago. Louisville Visual Art (LVA) recently relocated from the Louisville Water Tower to their new Portland Home at 1538 Lytle Street. To celebrate, they are offering an exciting and educational way to visit over 100 studios all over town to explore your local art scene. Open Studio Weekend (OSW) is a partnership of the LVA and University of Louisville Hite Art Institute to raise funds for LVA’s signature program Children’s Fine Art Classes and the Hite Art Institute’s Mary Spencer Nay Scholarship programs. Tickets for OSW can be purchased for only $20 at louisvillevisualart.org.

LVA improves lives through visual arts education, community outreach and artist support. Support for programs like OSW fosters the economic and business growth of local artists and promotes the visual arts culture in Louisville.
