We're feeling the (local) love after receiving support through grants and donations from:
-
The annual Charity Horse Show and a grant from the Cleveland TN George R Johnson Foundation have allowed us to have additional instructors certified by PATH International this year.
-
Ivey Sumrell who sponsored Rex through the Non-profit, "Foundation For The Carolinas". Did you know you could sponsor any of our horses to help offset the regular care and feeding of our herd? Learn more here.
-
Chattanooga Tractor and Bradley County Healthy Community Initiative came together through a grant request to purchase a new 70hp Massey Ferguson tractor, helping us with pasture management and moving hay
-
Sherry Brown who has been a faithful supporter of TSTRC for several years has sponsored 5 horses and started a Veterans Services fund - The Larry McDaris Fund - which includes the TN State Veterans Home program at TSTRC.
We're excited about our programs that have had incredible successes!
-
TSTRC is continuing working with Bradley County Schools to allow students to participate win our Taking The Lead program because of the generous support of The Bachman Foundation.
