What is Go Frankfort?
Go Frankfort started as a group of friends with a desire to make a difference in Franklin County, Kentucky. As our passion for helping our community grew, so did Go Frankfort. Our first priority is to help take care of our community and the people within it. Our second goal is to encourage others to do the same. Volunteerism demonstrates to the world our real and committed belief that today is the day we have a chance to do something good for our community and ourselves.
As Go Frankfort, citizens of this great community come together as one to take action to help local charities and provide labor for community projects in Frankfort. Go Frankfort organizes two volunteer days each year in order to assist with projects that help local agencies continue to do what they do best... take care of our neighbors. We hope that Go Frankfort Volunteer Days will encourage our volunteers to continue in service to agencies throughout the year. Other projects are initiated and completed throughout the year as the necessity arises.
In our first four events a total of 700 volunteers have come together from throughout Frankfort to help others. Side by side we have worked on over 44 different projects with volunteers, young and old. Everyone has the ability help make a difference! Let us help show you how! Go with us! Go Frankfort!

GF Spotlight
Simon House is a nonprofit transitional living facility for homeless adult women who are pregnant or have children. In collaboration with other agencies and organizations, we provide a safe, stable, and healthy environment that encourages, educates, and empowers residents to become self-sufficient and productive members of our community and the larger society.
Simon House provides a home for six homeless women, age 18 and over, who are pregnant or have children. Families come primarily from Franklin and surrounding counties in Central Kentucky. Besides providing a residential setting for women and their children, Simon House provides specific strategies and training designed to develop personal and family stability. Its purpose is to enable mothers in crisis to become whole, self-sufficient, and able to obtain permanent housing and employment. The residents are also encouraged to develop coping and parenting skills necessary for a stable, successful, independent family life.
