Project Friendship: Delivering Kindness, One Item at a Time
From warehouses to hands in need—together, we’re transforming lives across Kentucky.
Our Mission: Kindness in Action
Project Friendship began as a simple idea—a fourth-grade class project at the Louisville Jewish Day School to provide shoes to those in need. From these humble beginnings, we have grown into a 501(c)(3) organization, distributing millions of dollars worth of new clothing, shoes, and other essentials to people in need throughout Kentucky.
By partnering with major retailers, aid organizations, and passionate volunteers, we ensure that items destined for landfills instead find their way into the hands of those who need them most.
Your Support Makes a Difference
Through partnerships with major retailers and distributors, Project Friendship rescues hundreds of pallets of new clothing, shoes, and household essentials that would otherwise end up in landfills. These items are distributed directly to those in need through our mega giveaway events and “Friendship Corners,” established within aid organizations across Kentucky. At every step, we ensure that all goods are provided completely free of charge to those who need them most.
