Overview

Mission

Rehabilitation

What it reported doing in 2025

FFTRC provides therapeutic benefits to children and adults living with physical, mental, developmental, communication and other various special needs through working with horses. We currently have 24 clients ranging in age from 3 to 82.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
