We’re excited to share that Ivey Ranch has been awarded a grant through Children’s Health Foundation to support North County children through Equine Assisted Services (EAS). The grant will fund scholarships for children ages 5–17 who are facing physical, developmental, or mental health challenges — helping make sure cost isn’t what stands between a child and the support our programs can offer.
For some families, this will mean coming out to Ivey Ranch for the very first time: to check us out, meet a horse, and see what Equine Assisted Services can mean for their child.
That’s what we’re calling Open Gate — our invitation to families who haven’t yet experienced what happens here. If you know a child or family who could benefit, we’d love for them to join us at our Meet & Greet on September 26, 2026. They can register online and use the promo code “Open Gate” for a free visit — no cost, no pressure, just a chance to see the ranch and meet our horses.
Thank you to Children’s Health Foundation for helping us open the gate a little wider.
