History

Originally founded in the 1997, the Kentucky Chamber Foundation was founded as a passive vehicle for receiving donations supporting ad hoc economic development and education efforts in Kentucky. During the last decade, the Foundation has seen significant growth due to interest from corporate foundations and the creation of effective programs to fulfill its mission. Now, the Foundation is poised to build on these successes by pursuing programmatic outcomes that benefit our state and grow the organization’s impact.

ADVANCING KENTUCKY IN EDUCATION, HEALTH AND WELLNESS, ENERGY, GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY, AND GLOBAL COMPETITIVENESS.

The Kentucky Chamber Foundation furthers the Chamber’s goal of advancing Kentucky by leading initiatives for research and action. The Kentucky Chamber Foundation covers broad community and business issues not only with advocacy but with a level of innovation and education that is unmatched in the Commonwealth.

The Kentucky Chamber Foundation has released its annual Impact Report, which highlights the organization’s comprehensive efforts to advance economic opportunity and workforce development for individuals across the Commonwealth.

The 2023 Impact Report outlines Foundation programs and training initiatives that have been critical in addressing some of Kentucky’s most pressing issues, including workforce participation, educational attainment, and diversity, equity, and inclusion.
