More Than a Student Organization. A Community.

FAITH. MENTAL HEALTH. COMMUNITY.

The Vine Project is a faith-based organization at the University of Kentucky dedicated to walking alongside teenagers, college students, families, churches, and schools through mentorship, community, and the hope of Christ. We believe no one should have to face life's challenges alone.

Our Mission

"Our mission is to love people the way Christ loves us by creating meaningful relationships, promoting mental wellness, and building a community where every person feels seen, known, and supported."

What We Believe

  • Every person has value.

  • Healing happens in community.

  • We were never meant to walk alone.

  • Christ is our foundation.

  • Mental health matters.

  • Small acts of love create lasting impact.
