Description

On April 9, 2022, two hundred and fifty guests will converge at the Jefferson Country Club in Blacklick, Ohio to support Dreams on Horseback’s mission of enriching lives with horses at our therapeutic horse center in Blacklick. That night we plan to raise over $100,000 to support our many programs and celebrate our 20th anniversary of bringing horse-partnered learning to children and adults with special needs in Central Ohio. As part of the evening’s festivities, both a silent and live auction will be conducted. We are asking that you consider donating to these auctions. As a donor, you will be recognized at the gala through signage, announcements, program listings, and this year through an online auction platform that will push to over 2000 potential customers for your business. Your donation will also be recognized through Dreams on Horseback’s social media, website and traditional media postings prior to and following the event. We so appreciate our sponsors and make every effort to share your support with the public! Ultimately your support will help Dreams on Horseback, a therapeutic horse center, meet the growing demand for participation in our therapeutic programs which support over 19,000 program hours through Alzheimer’s sensory stimulation programs, vocational training programs for teens and young adults with special needs, therapeutic riding, and programs designed specifically for the support of military, veterans and their families. As a 501c3 non-profit, your donation of goods or services to our organization is tax-deductible. With the help of people like you, Dreams on Horseback changes the lives of children and adults, both young and old, with cognitive, emotional and physical challenges every day through opportunities to interact with our dedicated staff, volunteers, and kind and gentle therapy horses - children like Ava Clous who said her first word atop our horse at four years old and now eleven years later relies on our programs to build her self-worth in a world that struggles to see how hard she works to overcome the symptoms of autism that challenge her every day, or young men like Brady Penna who ride each week to combat the muscular decline that accompanies cerebral palsy and find joy with his barn friends. If you would like more information about our programs, feel free to contact me at 614-864-9500 or visit www.DreamsOnHorseback.org. We thank you for your consideration of this request. Donations can be sent to Dreams on Horseback, 1416 Reynoldsburg – New Albany Rd., Blacklick, OH 43004, or contact us at heidi@dreamsonhorseback.org to arrange for pick-up.
