Alley Cat Advocates is proud to announce it received a grant from the Honorable Order Kentucky Colonels (HOKC) in the amount of $2000 to purchase a dishwasher and an exam light.
The Alley Cat Advocates serves Louisville and surrounding communities by working to stabilize and reduce Louisville’s community cat population and improve the lives of community cats, through the tested, proven and humane method of trap-neuter-return.
HOKC will award $2.1 million in grants supporting 275 non-profits, impacting close to 3.7 million Kentuckians. Grants are made possible through donations from contributing Kentucky Colonels from throughout the Commonwealth and around the world who chose to exercise this honor in a meaningful way.
According to Commanding General Hal Sullivan: “When HOKC Trustees met with grant applicants this year, we were reminded how hard the pandemic has made life harder for many folks, from first responders in community service charities to the clients themselves. Thanks to Kentucky Colonels from around the world who donate to the Good Works Program, HOKC can lend a helping hand to so many local charities that provide essential services that lessen the impact. Because a Colonel cares, we make giving to others a Proud Kentucky Tradition.”
