Virtual Fundraiser Nov 29, 2020
It was fantastic to see so many familiar faces during our Home is Where the Haunt Is fundraising event on Thursday evening! Thank you to everyone who showed up to support the transformative work that takes place every single day at Back Bay Therapeutic Riding Center. We feel truly blessed to be surrounded by such a generous community.
If you missed our live program and want to see all our animals give red carpet interviews, you can relive our oh-so fun night by following this link:
Giving Tuesday Now
#GivingTuesdayNow is a global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020 as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. A global threat like COVID-19 affects more than just the infected. A pandemic like this touches every person on the planet, and it presents an opportunity to come together as a global community.
You can show your support for frontline workers, unsung heroes, and the grassroots organizations that are helping our most vulnerable communities around the world. Mark your calendar for May 5, 2020 and get ready for the most epic #GivingTuesday yet.
In response to the widespread COVID-19 outbreak, our program is temporarily closed. Sadly, besides cancelling our therapeutic riding lessons, we have the regret to announce you that we had to cancel the heart of our fundraising efforts, our fundraiser in May. This annual event provides critical revenue to sustain us until the following year. But our horses still need to be fed and cared for (vet bills, shoeing). And we will have to be ready for those in much need as soon as we can reopen: our special students. It costs us about $90,000 a year to run our program (including the welfare of our horses, instructors and groom salaries, repairs and maintenance, office).
Please consider donating to help us get through these very unsettling times. Any contribution is tax deductible and is much appreciated.
