JOIN OUR MISSION
There are several ways in which you can contribute and support Living Hope Youth Ranch. Each contribution is a blessing to the ranch and the children we are blessed to spend time with!
HOW TO HELP
Volunteer
Anyone 18 or older can volunteer at the ranch. There is a lot to do! We are also always looking for session leaders.
Donate Financially
Living Hope Youth Ranch's expenses are currently around $10,000 a year. After these expenses are covered, we can begin to use any additional money to build our DREAM BARN, which would give us the ability to rescue more horses. All donations are tax deductible as we are a 501(c)3 nonprofit.
Donate Items
There are many things we need each year and we even have a wish list going. We also have an annual donation yard sale each year as a fundraiser for the ranch. All items are tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)3 nonprofit.
Sponsor a Horse
You are welcome to pledge a monthly or yearly amount to sponsor one of our horses as well. Each horse costs about $2,000 a year for all of its needs (teeth, feet, feed, supplements etc.) and those costs are on the rise. Contact us if you are interested in being a sponsor.
