Learn about the Taco Steve Recovery Fund at GoFundMe.


To know Stephen "Taco Steve" Powell is to love the guy, so consider a donation to help with his recovery from a broken hip. In terms of business, Steve has staff, and things are on a normal footing.

Here's to fast healing.

Taco Steve Recovery Fund

Heather Morris on behalf of Stephen Powell

My name is Heather Morris and I have decided to start a GoFundMe for my friend and business colleague, Stephen Powell a.k.a. Taco Steve.

On Friday August 10th Taco Steve founder (and head chef extraordinaire), Stephen Powell, was involved in a serious skateboarding* fall resulting in a broken hip. He has since had to undergo a pretty major surgery. He is now partially bionic with a metal plate and two screws holding his hip in place.

Unfortunately Steve was uninsured and will be out of work for an undetermined amount of time. The medical bills will be there (est. $40,000-50,000) and he will have time to figure out a plan for his future, but really needs support for his short term medical expenses and loss of income.

Let’s show this awesome guy and figure of our community the support he deserves and help him through his recovery by giving him some peace of mind that everything will be alright in the meantime!

* He has since submitted his paperwork resigning from the world of skateboarding indefinitely, quoted: “I am too old for that shit.”

Ken Pyle Medicine Money: It's time to step up and give Ken a hand.

Ken Pyle is a New Albany resident and longtime owner/operator of the Rudyard Kipling in Louisville. He's a legend, an icon, and universally adored in the food, drink and entertainment communities. I'd heard he was ill, and now there's a way to be of assistance when he needs it most. Verily, Ken has provided the metro area with uncounted good times, but more importantly, so many good vibes; believe me, the Rud's been a labor of love, and not a license to print money. Consider a donation, and spread the word.

Family and friends of Ken Pyle have set up a fundraising campaign to help with uncovered medication costs. Please show your support!

Ken Pyle is a prince of positivity. Whether it be with his family, his friends, his church or his one-of-a-kind establishment The Rudyard Kipling in Louisville, KY, Ken has always emphasized joy and peacefulness in all things. Recently, Ken was hospitalized with an infection caused by complications with his knee replacements. He has had 2 successful surgeries but still suffers from the infection that spread to other parts of his body. Ken has Medicaid which covers his doctor bills, hospitalization, and what at the time of this campaign looks to be 6 weeks in nursing home, but his very costly medication is not covered. This campaign is raising funds for this.
