It is Giving Tuesday and we are raising funds to Give Kids the Magic of Winter Camp at EmpoweRanch!

Winter camp at the ranch means three days of outdoor adventure with the horses, other animals, the garden, and hands-on ranch projects. Kids are outside, moving, trying new things, and making friends instead of sitting on screens.

This fundraiser helps with camp scholarships and a glow up for Dancer and Grand’s feeding and outdoor classroom area. If you are able, please donate or share to help us reach our goal. ​💚

We’re so grateful for our veteran volunteers Monika (and her amazing service dog Memphis) and Sherry for showing up and sharing our mission with so many.
