What it reported doing in 2025
In 2025, Grace Mountain Ranch established a Horsemanship program that teaches life skills to youth ages 7 and above through riding and horsemanship. This program grew to 53 weekly participants by the end of the year. Additionally, an equine-assisted discipleship program called Reins of Grace was piloted in the fall and served 14 girls between the ages of 10 and 16. This program was very successful and will continue to grow as a primary program at the ranch. The organization also served parents who experienced secondary trauma from a local school shooting through an equine-assisted coaching group. It also served at-risk youth during the school year through equine-assisted learning. By the end of the year, 90 individuals were being served every week through various equine-assisted service programs that focused on strengthening faith, life, and leadership skills. 12 equines serve as our primary service herd members. The organization looks forward to continuing this growth into the coming year with strategic direction and positive momentum.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
