The Refuge at Freedom Ranch Inc

EIN 92-0328534 • 501(c)3 • Indian Valley, VA

Profile

The vision for the refuge at freedom ranch is to create a therapeutic environment by pairing horses and other farm animals with at-risk youth from the surrounding counties of southwest virginia. We believe that the natural beauty at freedom ranch provides an ideal setting for finding peace and restoration for those in need. We also plan to utilize our incredible property in floyd and carroll counties to empower children from drug-addicted families through horsemanship and ranch skills. Our long-term vision is to support any children in future who have the desire to participate in horsemanship competitions (particularly reined cow horse).
