Every Gift Makes a Difference: What’s On Our Wish List and Why It Matters

At Key Assets Kentucky, every donation—big or small—helps us meet the real and urgent needs of the youth and families we serve across the Commonwealth. Our Wish List isn’t just a list of items—it’s a roadmap to healing, stability, and growth for children navigating some of life’s most difficult challenges.

Whether it’s a hygiene kit for a teenager living in a group home or a sensory tool for a child with autism undergoing therapy, each item supports our mission to provide compassionate, community-based care.

Why a Wish List?

Unlike broad donation appeals, our Wish List is grounded in the everyday needs we see firsthand. It’s filled with practical items and support categories that directly impact our programs in Behavioral Health Services and Children in Community Care (CCC). These aren’t extras—they’re essentials.

When you give through our Wish List, you’re not only contributing—you’re choosing exactly how to make a difference.

How Your Gift Helps: Real-Life Examples

Here’s how your donation directly supports children and families in our care:

  • $50 helps us provide a comfort item or sensory tool for a child with autism or other neurodevelopmental needs—things like a weighted blanket, a fidget tool set, or calming noise-reducing headphones.
  • $100 can purchase essentials for a child entering a group home, including hygiene products, undergarments, socks, and weather-appropriate clothing.
  • $200 supports enrichment activities, such as therapeutic outings or life skills classes, for youth in our CCC program. These experiences are designed to foster resilience, confidence, and a sense of connection to the community.
  • $250 provides emergency support for a family in crisis, including food, necessities, or temporary transportation assistance to access therapy, school, or work.
  • $500 helps us furnish and maintain safe, welcoming treatment and living spaces for children in our programs—spaces where healing can begin.

These are just a few examples of the ways your support makes a difference. Additional donation levels and specific examples are listed on our complete Wish List—each tailored to address a real need for the youth and families we serve. Alternatively, you can donate right now via our Amazon Wish List, linked here, which we use to purchase supplies for our office and group homes. 

Creating Impact Together

Every child deserves the chance to feel safe, supported, and seen. Your donation helps us bring that vision to life. Whether you’re able to give once, monthly, or fulfill a specific need from the list, you’re part of the Key Assets Kentucky family—and we are so grateful.
