Healing With Horses Wellness Fund

There is something almost indescribable about what happens when a person stands in the presence of a horse. Horses see past masks and stories. They mirror emotions, reflect truth, and invite us into a level of honesty and connection that words alone can’t always reach.

That’s why equine-partnered coaching is so powerful. Horses become partners in the healing process—helping people calm anxiety, rebuild trust, release grief, and step into confidence and purpose.

And the need has never been greater.

    •    Nearly 1 in 5 U.S. adults (over 58 million people) experience a mental illness each year.

    •    1 in 6 youth struggle with a diagnosable mental health disorder.

    •    Since the pandemic, demand for therapy has skyrocketed, leaving millions without timely access to care.

Traditional therapy provides an important foundation for many—but some need something different, or something more. Equine-partnered coaching offers that bridge: an experiential path that creates breakthroughs where words often fall short.

💫 Why Now

Starting September 1, we want to begin offering these programs for free to those who cannot afford them. To do this, we must raise the funding now.

✨ For every $24,000 raised, 60 people will have access to a month of equine-partnered healing.

Already, we have a mother and her two daughters on our waitlist, waiting for the opportunity to step into this work. With your help, we can open the circle for them—and for many more who are quietly waiting.

We are also blessed to work alongside incredible organizations and therapists who bring their clients to us through contract programs. But many of the people who need this most—veterans, women, teens, and families—don’t have an organization sponsoring their care.

That’s where you come in.

💰 How You Can Help Unlock Healing

Family Healing Sessions

    •    $300 = 1 Family Healing Session (up to 5 family members)

    •    $600 = A full month of support for one family (2 sessions)

    •    $1,200 = A month of support for two families

Empowerment & Healing Circles

    •    $6,000 = One Circle funded (15 participants × 2 sessions)

    •    $12,000 = Two Circles funded (30 participants)

    •    $18,000 = Three Circles funded (45 participants)

    •    $24,000 = All Four Circles funded for the month (60 participants + horses supported)

Every gift ensures that people who need this work most are not turned away. And every program funded also helps support the care of the horses who partner with us in this mission.
