To assist the victims, families, and community in the wake of the Allen KY mass shooting on June 30, 2022, the Floyd County Community Foundation established the Floyd County (Allen KY) Crisis Fund.

“We are in a state of disbelief,” said Ellen Harris, Floyd County Community Foundation chair. “Our hearts are broken. We have lost three police officers and a K-9 police dog and so many more are recovering. It is a tragedy in our small community. We know most of us are still in a state of shock and grief, but we also know our community needs our help and opening this fund is our way to help.”

The crisis fund was established by the Floyd County Community Foundation on July 2 and will remain active as long as it is needed.

Donations to the crisis fund will be utilized to help those who were directly impacted by the shooting, the community’s immediate needs for healing, and chances to improve long-term community safety and wellness.
