How it all started...
Alex and Destiny had served in multiple nonprofit and church roles helping people in need. In 2021 the Lord began to stir their hearts to Louisville Kentucky to help those experiencing addiction, homelessness, poverty, and sex trafficking.
In late 2021, the Kennedy's moved to Louisville Kentucky and started Hope Rescued. Doing outreaches in homeless camps across the city providing hot meals, snack bags, and solutions off the streets Hope Rescued quickly developed several committed volunteers and began establishing relationships with people in need across the community.
In August of 2022 Hope Rescued launched a small outreach center service/ community dinner in the Portland neighborhood of Louisville. This service quickly developed as an avenue for Hope Rescued to serve clothing, food, and other basic necessities with the community, and share the gospel.

Where We Are Today
Today, Hope Rescued serves well over 1,000 bags of food and hundreds of hot meals every single month in camps across the city. Hope Rescued facilitates at least 4 homeless outreaches every week, an anti human trafficking outreach each week, and operates a call number where people looking for recovery, assistance out of trafficking and exploitation situations, or fleeing domestic violence can call and be connected to resources to help.
Hope Rescued also runs an outreach center in the Portland neighborhood of Louisville. The Outreach center includes work with inner city kids, Hope Market, a free market style pantry where people can shop for food at no cost, a clothing closet, job resources, and more.
In November 2025 Hope Rescued launched its newest campus, a women's day drop in center called Home of Hope. A space women can come in during the day and receive various essential services ranging from food, hygiene, and clothing, to showers, GED signups, and assistance into soluions.

Expanding The Vision
We continue to dream of more together. There are thousands of people facing food insecurity in Louisville. There are victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking constantly being abused in our city. There are people suffering on the streets at the hands of addiction, and we must do more.
Hope Rescued is currently raising funds to renovate a larger outreach center campus that would increase capacity to serve hot meals, distribute essential food items, and reach the next generation through tutoring and engagement spaces.
Hope Rescued continues to innovate and strive to make a greater impact in our community for the better.
