As a grandson of the Foundation’s namesake, Robert Butler, it is a blessing to continue his legacy of “Love of Thy Neighbor” in the community. I am proud to be part of advancing the vision set forth by our founders, my Uncle Bill and Aunt Sue Butler, “to serve those most in need” in the cities and neighborhoods that make up our amazing Northern Kentucky home.

St. Augustine said, “Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by accidents of time or place or circumstance, are brought into closer connection to you.” The Butler Foundation makes a difference by helping our neighbors when they need it most.
