Canine and Equine Services by Kate hasn't added a story.
Canine & Equine Ranch (The Ranch) is a 501c3 organization for the wellness of people and animals. Over the years, we have grown from specializing in dog and horse care to providing sanctuary for all types of domestic animals. Our programs offer exposure to ranch life, animal advocacy, and various safety presentations for the community.
Sadly, our finances have been challenging for a long time now and unfortunately, we have not been able to expand our volunteer staff as we had hoped. We have only made it this far from the generosity and dedication of our current supporters.
We are working on creating a solution that would save us from having to re-home the animals and dissolve the organization. At the very least, we will need to downsize and will no longer be able to offer a public facility. We are trying to secure a home with land for the animals. However, that option would take us to northern California.
Our Board of Directors is committed to keeping the organization alive and we are working together to ensure the best future for the animals and our cause. We would whole heartedly appreciate your continued support as we navigate this unsettling time.
Although we are facing challenges, this is a successful endeavor. We brought this dream to life with little in our pockets but an abundance of compassion and determination. I will never forget the smiles created from a touch of soft fur at the assisted living facility. I’ll cherish all the memories of children exploring their animal inspired creativity. I see the fruits of our labor every time one of the horses rolls in the dirt and bucks in the air. I know it from the relaxed look on their faces and I hear it in the happy squeals. Of course, don’t forget the wagging tails! For all of these reasons, and more, we need to keep this organization alive!
It might take time, there will be sacrifice, and I’ll have to be creative. However, I am determined to continue providing a beautiful, safe life for the animals.
We are in the final stages of securing a new home for the sanctuary. Our relocation will take us 6 hours north of our current location. Therefore, we will need funds to pay for these relocation costs.
We have two main expenses: First, we will need to pay for the safe transport by a professional hauler for our animals. Second, we need to rent a truck to move our animal enclosures and supplies.
Our finances are tight already, which is why we are in this situation. Any donation would be greatly appreciated!
