All proceeds of the event will benefit June’s Second Chance Ranch, a non-profit 501(c)3 animal rescue and Equine (horse) Therapy facility targeting adults and Service Men and Women suffering from PTSD and other trauma-related conditions.
As a former police officer, Lindsey Wall, president and E.D. of JSCR, is very familiar with the challenges first responders face every day and the courage it takes to ask for help. “I know what they go through and how hard it is to admit that something got to you and you are struggling. As first responders, we have to maintain a constant public image of strength and courage, but first responders and veterans are human just like everyone else, and it’s impossible that some of the stuff they experience does not affect them. At JSCR, we offer understanding and a place of belonging, and just being outside and near our horses is therapeutic and proven to help with the symptoms of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Just by participating in our event, you can help us save our local animals in need and continue offering equine-guided assistance to our veterans and first responders who do so much for us,” said Lindsey Wall, President at June’s Second Chance Ranch.
