Project Title: Operational Support for Servant’s Heart Ranch
Project Description:

Servant’s Heart Ranch serves the mental health needs of children ages 8–18 in the Carolina region through equine mentorship programs, offered at no cost to participants. Many of these children have experienced adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), such as trauma, abuse, neglect, and mental health struggles. SHR provides a safe, nurturing environment where youth develop coping skills, build confidence, and find hope and purpose through equine mentorship and faith-based guidance.

Your support will directly fund operational expenses, including animal care, barn and property maintenance, and staff salaries. These funds ensure that our ranch and programs remain accessible to all children in need, regardless of financial status. By investing in the day-to-day operations of SHR, you are helping us expand our impact, fostering resilience and hope in vulnerable youth, and addressing the growing mental health crisis among children in our region.
