Join us at the Kentucky Freethought Convention 2026!

Empowering Humanity and Securing Our Freedoms

True empowerment arises when individuals are equipped with the knowledge, tools, and social structures necessary to determine their own futures. This involves fostering critical thinking, ensuring equitable access to information, and upholding the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In parallel we must proactively defend against authoritarianism and systemic inequality. By prioritizing reason and empathy over dogma, we can build resilient societies where every individual has the liberty to pursue their full potential, contributing to a more just and liberated world for all.

Cornerstone Contributors

Originally a program of the Kentucky Secular Society, the Kentucky Freethought Convention is now an independent 501(c)3 non-profit organization. This process started in 2018 and was delayed a few times by world-changing events.

As a new independent organization, we started over with non-profit paperwork and funding, starting with $0. Because of the generous contributions of our original Cornerstone Contributors, we were able to cover those initial costs. If you'd like to contribute $25 to join the growing list to help offset our ongoing administrative operating expenses, you will be recognized for your support for this convention and future conventions as a Cornerstone Contributor, as we continue to build the organization with our all volunteer team.

For anyone supporting us again as a Cornerstone Contributor, you'll receive a special Continual Cornerstone Contributor recognition.
