The Equine Healing Collaborative

At the Equine Healing Collaborative, it's not just the horses who contribute to healing—our pigs and goats also play a vital role! 🐷🐐

However, without your help, our herd of many animals 🐎🐐 🐷 🐓 faces the potential loss of their current home. The property we rent has been unexpectedly put up for sale, and if it is sold, all our rescued animals will be displaced along with our services. We're working hard to raise the funds to purchase the property ourselves so we can keep this healing sanctuary alive, and every donation counts!

Please consider donating to support the Equine Healing Collaborative— you can support us by sharing, attending our harvest fundraiser, donating to our GoFundMe, or making a donation at equinehealing.org.

We need your help to make sure we don’t lose this haven for therapy, healing, and community support. 🙏💛

At The Equine Healing Collaborative, we're on a mission to break down the barriers that often keep people from seeking the mental health support they need. Through our nontraditional, equine-assisted therapy, we provide accessible services to people from all walks of life, especially those from low socioeconomic backgrounds. We believe that real healing happens through genuine connections—with horses, nature, and compassionate therapy.

Our approach not only offers an alternative path to mental wellness but also reduces the stigma around seeking help. At The Equine Healing Collaborative, everyone deserves a space to heal, connect, and thrive.

Meet Nashville, a clever and spirited horse living at our rescue sanctuary, which is home to not just horses, but goats, pigs, chickens, cats, and dogs. Nashville's intelligence shines through in his playful antics-he's known for expertly opening gates and finding inventive ways to scratch his belly on the food bins. His charm and wit make him a favorite among visitors, but he represents so much more than just a playful equine.

Our sanctuary is a vital haven for over 40 horses who have suffered mistreatment. Here, they can roam freely and begin their journey to healing. However, our mission extends beyond animal rescue. We also provide affordable mental health therapy for those in need, including children as young as two, teens, adults, and seniors. These essential services help individuals navigate life's challenges without the burden of high costs.

To continue our work, we urgently need your help. We're reaching out for support to raise awareness and funds for our foundation. With your donations, we can expand our outreach, care for more animals like Nashville, and provide crucial mental health services to our community. Together, we can make a difference for both the animals and the people who need us most. Please consider helping us today-every contribution counts!

There is something undeniably powerful about healing in nature. At The Equine Healing Collaborative, we believe that the natural world provides a unique space for reflection, connection, and growth. Surrounded by open skies, fresh air, and the calming presence of animals, healing takes on a deeper, more organic process. Nature helps us reconnect with ourselves, offering a pause from the noise of everyday life. The rhythm of the animals, the sound of the wind, and the feel of the earth beneath your feet create a grounding environment where true healing can happen. When we step outside into the natural world, we’re reminded of the beauty in simplicity, the wisdom in slowing down, and the strength that comes from being connected to something bigger. Here, healing flows freely.

🌟 Meet Moe and Bocelli 🌟

These two playful souls aren’t just about fun – they also show us how much healing can happen through consistent loving care, time, rest, and rehabilitation. Moe and Bocelli remind us that just like them, we all need time to restore and heal, both physically and emotionally. 🐴💫

At the Equine Healing Collaborative, we believe in the power of slowing down, taking a breath, and letting nature and horses guide healing. Whether it’s through laughter, play, or quiet moments of reflection, there’s always a chance to find peace and recovery here. 🌿💖

🐷 **Pigs Have Personalities Too!** 🐷

Did you know that pigs are some of the most social and intelligent animals out there? Each of our four pigs has their own unique personality, and it’s so fun to watch them interact with us and each other.

Whether they’re playing, cuddling, or showing off their smarts, our pigs never fail to remind us that animals have just as much personality as humans.

Come meet them and see for yourself! These sweet souls are a big part of the healing we offer at The Equine Healing Collaborative. 💕🐽

**Urgent: Help Us Secure Our Home and Continue Healing!**

The Equine Healing Collaborative is facing a critical challenge. The property we’ve called home, where our rescue psychotherapy programs have helped countless individuals and families, is being put up for sale. We are only two years into our five-year lease, and without intervention, we risk losing the space where our rescued animals and clients come together for healing.

Our mission is to provide a safe, supportive environment for those seeking emotional recovery, from children struggling with mental health to families impacted by the opioid crisis. We combine the power of psychotherapy with the comfort and connection of rescue animals, offering life-changing programs like **”Mini Horses, Big Feelings”** and **”Paths to Healing Support for Families of Opioid Victims.”**

# # # We Need Your Help:
To secure the property and keep our programs running, we need to raise funds quickly. By donating, you’ll help us:
- **Purchase the property** to ensure a permanent home for our rescue animals and therapeutic services.
- **Continue providing mental health support** to those in need, including first responders, children, and families affected by trauma.
- **Expand our programs** to reach even more people who benefit from our unique approach to healing.

# # # How You Can Make a Difference:
- **Donate:** Every dollar brings us closer to securing our future.
- **Sponsor a Fundraiser:** Organize a community event, or connect us with individuals who want to support our cause.
- **Share Our Story:** Spread the word by sharing this post to raise awareness of our urgent need.

This property is more than just land—it’s a place of healing, hope, and transformation. With your help, we can protect this sanctuary and continue our mission of rescuing both animals and people through the powerful combination of psychotherapy and animal-assisted therapy.

**Please donate today and help us secure our forever home.**

Thank you for your generosity and support!
