Help make a difference

Help us give charles a permanent home

For the past two seasons, Charles—our gentle giant standing at an impressive 19.1 hands high—has been an incredible part of our program. His calm strength and kind nature have helped students grow in their skills, confidence, and connection.

Now, we have the opportunity to make Charles a permanent member of our school family. Owning him will ensure he continues to bless the lives of our students for years to come.

💛 Why We’re Fundraising

We’re raising funds to purchase Charles and provide for his ongoing care. Your generosity will not only help bring this remarkable horse into our program permanently, but will also enrich the educational and spiritual growth of our students.

A generous donor has already offered to cover all of Charles’s boarding costs—we just need your help to purchase him and make him officially part of our school program.

🐎 Meet Charles

• Gentle and patient: Charles takes incredible care of our students, helping even the most hesitant riders feel confident.
• Full of heart: At 10 years old, he approaches each day with kindness and enthusiasm.
• A true giant: Standing at 19.1 HH (about 6'4” at the shoulder!), he’s both majestic and loving.

🎄 A Special Thank You

As a token of our appreciation, any donations of $400 or more will include an invitation to take Christmas pictures with Charles this holiday season!
It’s a joyful way to celebrate your support and create lasting memories with this extraordinary horse.
