United Way of Central Kentucky is proud to receive a 2026 PepsiCo Foundation Community Impact Award, including a $5,000 grant to support improvements to our Community Garden in Elizabethtown!

The garden connects our neighbors with fresh, locally grown produce, hands-on learning and volunteer opportunities, helping individuals and families eat healthier, save money and build valuable gardening skills.

Thanks to the PepsiCo Foundation and Nick Leger, PepsiCo Area Delivery Manager and UWCK Board Member, for recognizing the impact of this work.

This support will help us expand access to fresh produce across our five-county service region while strengthening the garden as a place for education, volunteerism and healthy living.

We’re grateful for partners who help us grow stronger communities.

We had an incredible time celebrating 25 years of impact as we kicked off our annual campaign today at the Hardin County Chamber of Commerce’s membership luncheon!

Thank you to the Chamber, everyone who joined us—including the local organizations who participated in the Volunteer Expo—and everyone who helped make this kickoff celebration a success.

As we celebrate 25 years of making a difference in our community, we’re energized to bring people together and build on that impact for the next 25 years.
