Food Pantry

The Food Pantry provides non-perishable and pre-packaged nutrition in cases of urgent need, such as canned tuna, Vienna sausage, peanut butter, crackers, etc. Occasionally, cooked food is made available.

Clothing Closet

The Clothing Closet exists to offer the needs of men and women working on the backside. Because of insufficient funds and limited access to transportation, many workers turn to the chapel for assistance with essentials for living and work at the track--clothes, shoes, linens, blankets, towels, toiletries, packaged food. We strive to offer the love of the Lord by serving their needs, Monday and Thursday mornings.

Donate

Your support allows us to assist with the spiritual, physical and social needs of those working on the backside of thoroughbred race tracks and various training centers. Our Chaplains serve Churchill Downs, Ellis Park, Kentucky Downs, and Turfway Park race tracks in Kentucky, as well as Belterra Race Track in Cincinnati, Ohio. Your gift is an encouragement to the Chaplains’ outreach and this ministry.
