The Run for the Gates fundraiser-Opening Gates Inc

Please join our local community in raising funds for Opening Gates. Opening Gates (a non-profiit 501c3) provides therapy services for children and adults throughout Kentuckiana. They have a unique and effective approach to therapy in that they utilize horses (aka Equine Therapy).

Myself and 4 other passionate volunteers are having a friendly competition to raise money for this much needed service in our community. I want to win this competition! Please Help me and my horse Coco raise $3,000 by October 4th. Reaching this goal will pay for 100 hours of therapy for children.

My horse Coco is an amazing therapy horse. I remember the time when she intentionally turned her attention to a child. A child who was in the middle of trauma. She walked towards her and began to follow and listen to the child as the child was completing her task during the session. The perpetual frown that had been on the child's face for the entire first month had turned into a smile for the very first time. Coco had instilled a sense of belonging and confidence in this child. An act that only Coco could do and it changed the trajectory of this child's future.

Please join me in supporting Opening Gates and together we can touch the lives of so many children and allow them to experience the magical healing power of a horse.
