Horses and HopeSM and the Kentucky Cancer Care Community
Horses and HopeSM will once again be the local beneficiary of the Kentucky Oaks 138 “Pink Out!” For every Oaks Lily® drink sold on May 4, Churchill Downs will donate $1 to the project, which was founded by First Lady of Kentucky Jane Beshear and the Kentucky Cancer Program. The day will feature the increasingly popular “Survivors Parade.” A beloved Oaks tradition since 2009, the 2012 parade will include 138 cancer survivors, all who were chosen through an online nomination process.
The Churchill Downs Chaplaincy
Chaplain Ken Boehm is about the “ministry of presence.” His presence. We meet at 7:45 on a breezy, chilly, rain-laced April morning in the Churchill Downs Chapel. Its cheerful, clean interior is filled with images of Thoroughbreds and the people who provide their care and training. Framed photo collages reveal baptisms, testimonies, and lives in transformation on the backside of the track.

. . . and the Initiative to make Louisville Internationally known as “The City of Water”
For more than a century, Louisville has led the country in technologies that bring the safest, best tasting water into people’s homes. Today, Louisville is also leading the world in humanitarian efforts to ensure that people around the world have access to the quality drinking water many of us take for granted. The relationship between these two facts exemplifies what is best and beautiful about Louisville. Ours is not only a city of innovation, it is also a city of compassion. Even when we achieve the best drinking water in the country for our own citizens, we are not satisfied. Rather, this privilege ignites a passion in us to share this resource with the world.
