Overview

Mission

Our mission is to provide a safe haven for horse-human trauma recovery. We use a trauma and attachment approach to build relationships with horses and humans. We believe in safeguarding the needs of our generous horses and giving them a voice and choice in daily life and therapy sessions. We care for and cultivate a healing and restorative space for horses, humans, and our shared ecosystem.

What it reported doing in 2023

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 96% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
