THANK YOU!

For our “Giving Tuesday” campaign in November we had a large ask – $3,000 for a new, trained, miniature horse for our therapy program. You responded in a big way and we met our fundraising goal! After a few months of searching, we brought our new therapy horse “Pokie” home over the weekend. Pokie has a show background and has already begun program specific training on our farm.
