It’s heartbreaking to turn families away when they need help immediately. From children to seniors, people rely on our services, and we hope reaching our goal will allow us to support even more individuals in need.” For over 40 years, the Ivey Ranch Park Association has been a beacon of support for hundreds of individuals, both disabled and able-bodied, throughout San Diego County. Among their most impactful programs are the equine services, offering participants the mental, physical and emotional benefits of horseback riding through activities like therapeutic riding, vaulting and Horses for Heroes, a program supporting the well-being of veterans. Beyond equine therapy, the association provides before and after-school care tailored to meet the needs of all children, as well as an adult day program focused on functional skills training, vocational development and leisure activities. They also offer in-home respite care, giving family caregivers much-needed relief. Funds raised at the Hoedown will play a crucial role in expanding these essential services and reaching more families in need. With many families waiting over a year for support, the association is eager to eliminate the waiting list and provide immediate assistance to those who need it the most. These programs are life-changing for both children and adults, and every dollar raised brings Ivey Ranch Park closer to ensuring that no family has to wait for the care and resources they deserve.
