Donate in honor of Cheryl hansen

Our hearts are broken with the passing of the wonderful soul we all knew as Cheryl Hansen! Her big heart and ever strong drive to help others made a difference in so many lives, including the life of the horses here at Ride-A-Rescue! Cheryl not only provided words of support and encouragement for Reagan while starting the Ride-A-Rescue program, she also raised a wonderful son, Chris Hansen, who shared the same giving heart. His giving heart played a key role in helping to start the Ride-A-Rescue program and he still commits most of his time and energy into helping keep the Ride-A-Rescue program running.  Not only did Cheryl help create a strong drive to help in her son, she also continually helped support the Ride-A-Rescue program with her encouragement, donations, and consistent "praising and talking" about our program to anyone who would listen! Her presence will be greatly missed but it will never be forgotten! 
If sending a check is your preferred way to make a donation please make checks payable to: Ride-A-Rescue and the mailing address is

Without you we can't help them!

If it wasn't for donors like you then we would not be able to help horses in need like the ones you see in this slide show! Yes many of our horses have been rehabilitated and are now providing trail rides to the public to help raise money for the care/feeding of themselves and the other horses that are currently in rehabilitation. BUT those funds only cover so much and we need the help of donors to raise money! Rescuing a horse and bringing it back to good heath is a hard, a financially heavy burden in and of itself. To make a program like Ride-A-Rescue work and avaliable to the public there are many more aspects to consider other than the "recuing" part! We must take it a step further by working with and training/retraining the horse, another time and energy consuming task. Then add in the process of making sure the horses are rehabilitated and trained well enough that not only can almost any person ride them out on the trail but also the horses are capable of doing lessons, birthday parties, and go to local events to raise awareness. Remember though; not every horse we rescue is capable (physically and or mentality) of bridging the gap of past trauma or health issues to become part of the contributing Ride-A-Rescue working herd. And those horses still need time, care, energy, and money to help them but they can not help raise money for rescue program by being part of the working herd. Top all this off by making every aspect of our rescue solely volunteer basis so that all the money raised goes directly back to the horses. Put it all that together and you can now see a small picture of what it takes to make our rescue run! Its no small task but it is one that we love to do and we can't do it without your support!! So please consider donating to us, every amount helps no matter how small!
