Where the money goes

Our expenses are $120,000 a year.  We are a 100% labor of love volunteer facility- we pay NO salaries. Every single dollar that we receive goes to the horses and the kids.

• Feed (Hay & Grain): $24,490
• Veterinary and Farrier Care: $25,697
• Boarding & Training: $4,095
• Supplements & Medications: $6,520
• Chiropractic & Massage: $315
• Horse Burial: $2,250
• Program Meals & Supplies: $2,918
• Insurance & Office Expenses: $10,705
• Facilities (Porta Potty, Barn Repairs, Maintenance): $13,774

Total Expenses: $107,952
 We also made a one-time capital purchase of a used tractor for $12,000 

Total Spent: $119, 952

No donation is too small. Hazel's donation from her entire piggy bank was $19.29. She helped us pay a vet bill and her donation made us cry. We are so grateful for every penny because every single donation keeps these horses healthy, and happy, and keeps the kids coming.

$10 will by a wormer, or an immunziation, or a much needed medicine for one horse. $20 will buy a bag of XCel Senior Feed. $38 will buy a bag of Triple Crown Senior Feed. $33 will buy a bale of hay. You get the idea! 

$10 will support a child here. 8 sponsors at $10 each will pay a child's Ranch Hand tuition for a day. No child is turned away for lack of financing! 

We are so grateful to the grantors we have received funding from.
