Meet Our Team
Dedication. Passion. Commitment
This new chapter of Kentucky S.A.V.E. started with a simple helping hand. When former president, Ellen Banks, needed a place to help future rescues we opened our doors and were ready for anything. Then, when Ellen's life was ready to take on new a new chapter, we were ready again...and Kentucky S.A.V.E. took on a new chapter too!
This new team is small but our hearts are big! We are dedicated to our community and ready to help as many animals as we can!

Her personal time, professional time, and free time is all for them. She is determined to provide a space that is safe and is as close to home as possible until each animal finds their forever home. Nothing makes Ashley happier than seeing a happy ending.

Chloe
Rescue
Chloe is the girl that started it all! When the original Kentucky SAVE closed their doors, Chloe was still waiting for her home. We took on the 501c and all that came with it...which meant CHLOE! She has always been a special case but she stole our hearts immediately. We keep our promise to Chloe everyday by giving everything we've got to each and every rescue that enters our program!
Kristine Woody
Fundraising Coordinator
Kristine has a passion for rescues of all shapes and sizes. She knows how much care each rescue needs and works tirelessly to help ensure money is raised to help with vet costs and daily care. She loves to see a special case get the care and recovery they need!
