Kentucky Colonels Serving Central Kentucky Through Good Works
Community Impact
During our first two years, the Thoroughbred Chapter has worked to strengthen the lives of Kentuckians through continued service and charitable contributions.
Our Mission in Action
We recognize the need for greater resources for people of all ages experiencing homelessness, hunger, and hardship. By partnering with local nonprofits and mobilizing chapter volunteers, we help meet immediate needs while fostering civic engagement and community pride.
On July 1, 2026, the Thoroughbred Chapter was honored to receive a mayoral proclamation from the Mayor of Lexington, Kentucky, declaring that day Thoroughbred Chapter Day in the City of Lexington. We are deeply honored and humbled by this recognition.
