Did you know that ESNKY hosts tables at volunteer fairs and resource events? Last week, our Volunteer Coordinator and Ignite Institute Interns represented ESNKY at Northern Kentucky University's Fresh Fusion event for new students!

We were happy to meet with incoming students, connect with student organizations, and share ESNKY’s vision and mission with the NKU community. Thank you to everyone who visited our table or spoke to a shelter representative. If you signed up for more information, check your email! See you next year!

Yesterday was the first day of school at the Ignite Institute, so it was the first day for our new Ignite interns! The Ignite internship program sends students to different sites to learn on-the-job skills at local organizations. ESNKY is proud to host two interns every year!

This year, we welcome Maggie and Kenadie to shelter. They will come to shelter everyday to help with shelter needs ranging from administrative tasks to helping at shelter events to organizing and handing out clothes in our donations room.

We are excited for the year to come! Welcome, Maggie and Kenadie!

Grilled burgers and hot dogs have been on the menu thanks to a grant from the Durr Foundation! Their generous funding supported the purchase of two grills, propane and other supplies to make summer cookouts like this one possible. We'd also like to thank members of First Church of Christ who fired up the grills and served up summertime favorites for our guests.

Thank you to both organizations for turning up the heat in the very best way possible! 🍔

Once a month, Christe Casebolt helps organize a small group of adults from The Point/Arc of Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati to volunteer at the Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky.

Since 2025, their visits have brought more than helping hands to the shelter—they have brought heart, determination, pride, and a powerful reminder that everyone has something meaningful to give.

Christe connected with ESNKY through The Point Arc’s Day Program for adults with intellectual disabilities as she looked for new opportunities for her friends at The Point Arc to give back to their community in a hands-on, meaningful way.

Her decision to reach out to the shelter was also personal. Years earlier, Christe heard about the Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky when the organization helped her uncle get back on his feet.

This summer, we were honored to be selected as the beneficiary of Dickmann's Sports Barn's golf outing. We'd like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who participated and helped make the event a success!

We were blown away by the generosity of the donation and are incredibly grateful for this support.
