Entrepreneurs Foundation of Kentucky
We are proud to officially announce the launch of the Entrepreneurs Foundation of Kentucky and to welcome our inaugural member company, Biological Prospects
The foundation was created to allow entrepreneurs the opportunity to give back early in the creation of their company. The primary means is through a grant of stock options to the foundation though the foundation can work with entrepreneurial companiesin a variety of ways including accepting cash donations.
Another component fo the foundation will be the option to contribute to a STEM scholarship program.
The EFKY is one of many affilitates of the Entrepreneurs Foundation. These affiliates have over 800 member companies and have provided cash and service to over 650 community organizations.
I need to thank several people who have been invaluable in getting this foundation of the ground:
Vitale Buford with Stoll, Keenon, Ogden has been invaluable in helping with the inaugural event; Anne Nash and Allison Lankford with BGCF for their support and to all of our board members for their contributions.
I also need to extend a thanks to Brad Feld and Ryan Martens for their guidance and experience with establishing EF Colorado.
