Portland Promise Center

The Portland Promise Center is a cornerstone of positive change in Louisville's historic Portland neighborhood. Our various programs and events aim to enrich the lives of children, families, and community members. To continue making a significant impact, we rely on the generous support of our donors and fundraising efforts. Here’s how your contributions help us keep giving back to the Portland community:

Early Child Education Program

Your donations enable us to provide a high-quality early childhood education that supports the holistic development of preschool-aged children. With your help, we can maintain small class sizes, ensure personalized attention with low teacher-to-child ratios, and offer engaging, developmentally appropriate activities that foster a lifelong love for learning and Kindergarten Readiness.

Block Parties

Our annual Block Party is a community highlight that relies on donations to provide free food, games, face painting, and entertainment. Contributions help us create a vibrant event that brings the community together for a day of fun and connection.

Breakfast With Santa

With your donations, we can host a festive breakfast event where families enjoy a free meal, take memorable photos with Santa, and receive treats. Your support helps make this holiday tradition special for many families in our community.

Parents Christmas Store

Generous donations allow us to set up a special store where parents can purchase new Christmas gifts for their children at affordable prices. Your contributions make it possible for families to give their children the joy of receiving new gifts during the holiday season.

Community Thanksgiving Dinner

We rely on donations to provide a free Thanksgiving dinner to our community. Your support helps us prepare and serve a meal to over 350 people, ensuring that everyone has a place at the table for this important holiday.

Easter Egg Hunt

Donations help us organize an engaging Easter Egg Hunt, complete with snacks, pictures with the Easter Bunny, and a fun egg hunt for the children. Your contributions ensure that this event is both enjoyable and meaningful for local families.

Trunk Or Treat

With your donations, we can host our annual Trunk Or Treat event, where volunteers decorate their vehicles, distribute candy, and children earn books. Your contributions help us provide a safe and festive environment for families to celebrate Halloween.

V.I.T.A Tax Preparation

Our partnership with the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (V.I.T.A) is supported by donations that help us offer free tax preparation services. Your support enables us to assist community members with their tax needs, making a positive difference in their lives.

Every donation and fundraising effort directly supports the Portland Promise Center’s mission to uplift and empower our community.
