3R-Ranch Horses Helping Children, Inc. To : Whom it may concern, Thank you for your time. Would you please read this and help in any way you can! God blessed me with this task about a year ago and I deeply feel I will get this done! In my research I have found that NO one in the nation is doing what I am trying to do for the Children and Horses. As of now we are a grass root organization and are working out of our own pocket with a couple of acres and a three stall barn. We are in need of everything from hay, feed and medical supply, land, barns, trucks, trailers and Farm equipment. This small rural area is also in need of an Equine Education Center so children, schools, churches and the public can come to learn about and ride horses. Many of our youth are disadvantaged due to the rural isolation of some parts of Kentucky which our program would help our community and others, in many ways. We have a 501C3,under Always Believing -n- Children, however the more I network with Bureau of Land Management and the North American Riders for the Handicap along with their centers , and with NASCAR Angles, Victory Junction Gang, plus other Therapeutic Centers and educational programs. I have found out just how much our services are needed. Please read our mission and goals of the organization below. Mission and Goals 3R-Ranch, Horses helping children, Inc. is a Non-Profit Corporation dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and relocation of horses donated , abandoned or neglected. When a horse arrives at our facility it is placed in our recovery center where it is given a complete examination by our veterinarian and ferrier. Once the horse has been given the proper care and nourishment and a clean bill of health it will be placed in our training program. This will be a natural non-stressful training for the horses, since most of them will come from a hard life. Horses that are deemed suitable for children with therapeutic riding needs are donated to children�s camps, therapeutic riding centers and other organizations that use horses for therapeutic and educational purposes. Horses deemed not suitable for these purposes are placed for adoption with suitable owners, at no cost to the new owner, or 4-H horse programs , and safe horse handling classes as well or used at the Equine Education Center. The ranch would also travel to children�s hospitals and other child care centers to provide horse and buggy rides for children who otherwise may never have the opportunity to know the love and enjoyment of these wonderful animals. I have been working on designing and building a horse buggy that would be wheelchair accessible in order to accommodate those children confined to a wheelchair. I have also been talking with therapeutic centers in designing a saddle to accommodate some handicapped riders. The ranch would also lessen the burden of local and state law enforcement by our Horse Rescue Service, along with providing training and equipment for a local volunteer Mounted Search and Rescue Team. We would also like to provide a retirement pasture for older horses with a horsey haven cemetery. Again , Thank You so much for taking the time to read our letter. We sure hope to hear from you in regards to the hopes and dreams of our children and your partnership not only helps the children but preserves the life of a majestic animal. I hope that you will try to help me fulfill my dreams as well. Sincerely, Walter Murphy
