Kentucky Gives Day is an annual day of online giving that brings together charities and Kentuckians, near and far for a powerful day of action and philanthropy.

We appreciate your help in sharing our message on social media during this day of giving. Below are images and sample text for Facebook, Instagram. Facebook images are sized for sharing on your timeline. Instagram images are similar, but have been redesigned specifically for Instagram’s newsfeed (square).  LinkedIn uses images very close to Facebook so you can use this same download. Twitter / X remarkably also uses the same size image as Facebook.

Downloads for text are *.txt files. The links will be live, but you will have to add “@” and retype the name(s) to tag ACCA’s or Hidden River Cave’s Facebook pages. You can also copy and paste text directly from the page below. Please feel free to personalize.

Since Twitter does not allow as many characters, please feel free to improvise and use the online giving links. ☺️ Twitter / X also suggests avoiding hashtags so that people will click directly on the link(s) you provide. But, if you’re a “Twitter / X” person, please feel free to do what you think is best – and please let us know what works!

Thank you so very much for supporting us today!

WHY CAVES NEED YOU:

• Caves are Fragile: Caves are unique and fragile ecosystems. Some house rare and endangered animals found nowhere else. The beautiful and breathtaking mineral formations in America’s natural caverns can take thousands of years to develop. A single careless cave visitor can destroy them in an instant.

• Caves are Nature’s Museums: The cool constant temperature of caves preserves clues from our past. Prehistoric footprints made more than 4500 years ago were found in the soft mud of a cave in Tennessee. Some caves also contain artwork such as petroglyphs and pictographs and artifacts that may provide a better understanding of how ancient people may have used caves.

• Education Makes a Difference: Your support helps sustain our educational programs, which not only help build a better understanding of caves but also inspires curiosity and appreciation.

• support sinkhole/dump cleanups and maintain programs the directly benefit our community.

HOW YOU CAN HELP:

1. Donate, Join ACCA or Renew Your Membership: Donations and Memberships provide the foundation for our conservation efforts. This is the key that unlocks the doors to protecting the world beneath our feet.

2. Spread the Message: Share your passion for caves with friends, family, and on social media. Be the ambassador who amplifies our call to protect these wonders.

HELP PROTECT CAVE ANIMALS ON KENTUCKY GIVES DAY!

Caves are home to numerous animals, some of which are threatened and endangered. Certain animals, like bats, use caves as a place to raise their young or hibernate during the winter. Others like the blind crayfish live their entire lives underground. All of these animals rely upon a clean environment. Like the canary in the coal mine, the retreat and ultimate demise of cave animals signals a dangerous situation for us.

Join or donate today to help ACCA protect these often unseen animals through conservation projects and education. Your gift this year will have an additional impact by helping us match a $20,000 challenge donation to support ACCA and the American Cave Museum.
