May 18th - The momentum continues to build!
Good morning friends! With the amazing outreach of our Ambassadors and the events we have planned over the next two weeks, I feel confident updating our goal again ($15,000) because we passed last week's goal over the weekend. My hope is that we might *actually* hit $20,000 by the end of the month... with gratitude to all who are supporting our horses, our work and all the resources required to keep our farm "galloping". Have a great week!
May 13th - We are a thundering herd of hooves (and hearts)!
It was wonderful to see so many friends of the herd and HMH Ambassadors for our Campaign Kickoff event at Saratoga Arts on Friday. We are thankful to our friends at Saratoga Arts for collaborating with us and to our artist friends Melissa Trombetta (author of Summer Place to Be and HMH Ambassador), Michael McCabe (filmmaker) and Jean Ellen Sotansky (painter & print maker) along with Annie Brill of the Saratoga Winery for providing our lovely snacks. Over these first not-quite-two-weeks we've had several Ambassadors surpass their goals already and our THS team has once again passed our team goal of $10,000. Today we reached $11,611 and it seems like we're just getting into a good rhythm. Leaning into this good momentum, I've raised our goal again, to $12,500. With thanks to each and every kind individual for supporting our work - Helping Horses and Healing Humans!
May 5th - Happy Cinco de Mayo! We did it again!!
We surpassed our goal.. again! What an amazing feeling to see all the love pouring in to support the THS Team through the Horses for Mental Health Campaign. The horses and the humans at THS are so fortunate to have so many kind souls care about them. We are thankful, and we are "really rolling now"... with a whole month ahead of us, I've gone ahead and raised our goal again with gratitude. Hoping everyone saw the beautiful piece on CBS Sunday Morning yesterday which so beautifully captured what this whole campaign is about. We'll be sending the link to all of our HMH donors over the days ahead.
May 2nd - Happy Derby Day! WOW!!!!
Within 24 hours of launching the Horses for Mental Health Campaign, the THS team "blew past" our initial goal of $5000!! Amazing! In order to ensure that we build on this exciting momemtum, we're increasing our goal to $7500 today.. and we're not afraid to raise it again if we feel that we can. We'll be updating our page with more details about the specific use for this year's campaign funds so stay tuned for that. On behalf of the entire team at THS, we are incredibly grateful for every gift given to support our work "Helping Horses and Healing Humans" and we are proud to stand with our fellow organizations across the country in raising awareness and increasing access to the powerful role that horses can and DO play in Mental Health. And today, may they all run safely and swiftly.

It is a joy to share the work we do at THS with my friends, my family, my neighbors and everyone I know. I am proud to support the work we do “helping horses and healing humans” in our community!
