SOAP Up the Kentucky Derby 2025

Human trafficking is the 2nd leading crime in the U.S. and Ohio ranks in the top 5 of all states. Help us fight human trafficking and rescue missing youth from the area prior to the Kentucky Derby. Hundreds of thousands of people will be visiting our city and we want to keep it safe.

Volunteers will get educated on the signs of trafficking and what is going on locally. They will stuff bags with labeled soaps and make up remover wipes with the national human trafficking hotline number along with making folders for hotels and motels. They they will go to hotels and motels all around the Lousivlle to deliver them.
