At Healing Reins, we meet people where they are, in wide open spaces full of movement, connection, and possibility. Every day, children and adults of all abilities experience life-changing moments through equine-assisted services, nature-based pediatric therapies, and mental health programming. But as the need for services grows, so does the number of families who simply can’t afford them. Scholarship funding is what makes healing accessible and we’ve seen a sharp increase in the need for this funding that we can not keep up with. By giving through Central Oregon Gives, you’re not just donating; you’re opening the barn doors, the pasture gates, and the path toward healing for every person who needs it, regardless of their ability to pay. You’re ensuring the 275 people per week that access our services continue to access, and that we never have to turn anyone away.

Your donations make a significant impact:

• • $25 – Helps us reach rural Central Oregon families who might not otherwise know healing is possible. Your gift fuels outreach and ensures everyone has a path to our ranch.
  • $50 – Covers a participant’s initial welcome and orientation experience. This is the first time they meet their therapy team, and begin their healing journey.
  • $100 – Underwrites the cost of one therapy session, making equine-assisted or nature-based therapies accessible to families who need financial assistance.
  • $200 – Supports training and resources for our 80+ weekly volunteers, ensuring every participant has a safe, supported, and compassionate experience.
  • $500 – Provides essential health care and wellness support for our Healing Herd — the partners who make breakthroughs possible.
  • $700 – Fully funds a scholarship for one participant for an entire session, ensuring that financial hardship is never a barrier to receiving care.
  • $1,000 – Invests in expanding program capacity — supporting new therapists, animals, and equipment needed to meet the growing demand for services.
  • $3,000 – Sponsors a horse for a full year — covering its care, feed, training, and wellness, so it can continue changing lives.
