FLORENCE, Ky. (August 7, 2026) — Turfway Park Racing & Gaming and Newport Racing & Gaming partnered with FIESTA NKY during the second quarter, contributing more than $15,000 and participating in volunteer events to support Hispanic and immigrant families across Northern Kentucky.

FIESTA NKY, which stands for Families, Inclusion, Education, Society, Tradition and Access, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing the needs of Northern Kentucky’s growing Hispanic and immigrant population.

Families arriving in the region in search of new opportunities may face immediate challenges, including access to food, clothing, shelter and stable employment. They may also need assistance navigating essential services such as housing, healthcare and utility support.

FIESTA NKY works to remove barriers by connecting individuals and families with critical resources that promote stability, inclusion and long-term opportunity.

Turfway Park and Newport Racing & Gaming’s partnership with FIESTA NKY reflects their continued commitment to supporting organizations that make a meaningful impact in the communities they serve.
