Many Kentuckians are out of work due to the quickly growing COVID-19 pandemic, and their finances are suffering though some believe they can help.

Kentucky’s Governor Andy Beshear and Lt. Governor Jacqueline Coleman are calling on those Kentuckians to help their neighbors through the Team Kentucky Fund.

Already 46-hundred donations have been received totaling more than $390,000.

Lt. Governor Coleman says they will continue to add workers to help with unemployment claims. They have also added a call back feature so people will not have to stay on the phone for long periods of time.
