Summer is here. That never-ending winter with polar vortexes and 13 cancellations of school in Fayette County? Nothing but a miserable memory (unless you ask the kids at our shelter who didn’t seem to mind the excessive school closings).

Wondering how you should celebrate? Well, wonder no more! You can join us and thousands of others as we extol the first official day of summer at Give Into The Groove 2014!

On June 21, 2014 Give Into The Groove returns for an awesome 11th year. This annual feel-good benefit event is packed full of live and electronic music, multimedia art, and fashion. Driven by enthusiastic founder and local musician elle ven, their mission is to show that everyone can give back to their community by raising awareness for local organizations and charities.

Entrance to this artistic, musical extravaganza is just $5 and 100% of the donations go to the selected charities. And, if you haven’t yet heard, we are one of them! Our agency is one of the eleven chosen to receive the funds raised from this incredible event. We are beyond thankful and humble to participate in such a heartwarming event, along with these other wonderful charities:

Dress for Success
East 7th Street Youth Program
International Book Project
Kentucky YMCA
Lexington Humane Society
Lexington Philharmonic
Lexington Public Library
The Nest
The Plantory
The REP Theatre
March Madness Marching Band

Pretty cool right? This event has grown so much to the point where this year, they have moved it to Whitaker Bank Ballpark, home of the Lexington Legends, to accommodate the skyrocketing demand!

So, come join us as we celebrate the sweet summer solstice by hanging out with the grooviest people in the Bluegrass! In addition to a multitude of awesome music and art, each charity will have a game at their booth Groovers can play for $1 at a time. Just like admission fees, the price for each play will be donated directly to the charity running the game.

See you there!
