“Accounting method is modified accrual”

“2024 was a year marked by extraordinary transformation, connection, and joy. From weekly rides to special veteran retreats, and from stomping the divots to the various community events, every moment brought smiles, growth, and new milestones for our participants. Thanks to the compassion and generosity of our supporters, we achieved significant accomplishments in 2024: - voted one of the top three nonprofits in teton county, wyoming, for the 6th year in a row - welcomed 67 new participants to our programs - provided services to 312 participants - facilitated 1,159 lessons - awarded scholarship assistance to 59% of participants - hosted 3 horse shows and events where participants demonstrated their skills - added 4 new horses to our herd - received 2,446 volunteer hours donated by the community - continued winter programming in partnership with st. John's health senior living community - hosted a veterans ride for servicemen and women from across the country - provided an immersive weekend retreat for fifteen combat veterans, all with ptsd and many with traumatic brain injuries and a history of addiction, at no cost to the veterans. None of this would be possible without the vast and caring community that supports us. Donors, volunteers, staff, our board of directors, and countless other supports make all of these life-changing moments possible. It is the collective compassion and selflessness of these individuals that ensure that every participant-young or old, struggling with physical, behavioral, emotional, or cognitive challenges-experiences the strength, connection, and empowerment that jhtr brings.”
