WATCH: Quinn & Charleigh’s Stories

I’m so thankful to be able to share this video with you.

The stories you’ll see here—Quinn’s and Charleigh’s—are the reason we do this work. And because of your generosity this Christmas, more children will be able to find that same kind of hope next year.

Twelve years ago, Quinn and his mom heard a radio ad for Hope Reins. They’ve often said it felt like God’s timing. As a pre-teen, after his parents’ divorce and the loss of people he loved, Quinn came to the ranch needing a safe place. Over time, hope returned. Today, Quinn is 24, and that healing still matters.

Charleigh’s story is newer. Being a pre-teen is hard, and Charleigh has carried trauma since she was a baby. This past year, the loss of her great-aunt—her best friend—to cancer, followed just three months later by the loss of her grandfather, brought deep grief that began to show up in troubling ways. At Hope Reins, she has begun to find comfort, connection, and hope.

The change in both of them has been incredible to witness.

This is the kind of healing your generosity makes possible. Because of your Christmas gift, more children will be able to find this same hope as we welcome kids to the ranch in the year ahead.

Thank you for the Christmas gift you’ve already given. I’m so grateful for your compassion and your willingness to step in for kids who are hurting.

Merry Christmas!
