The Susanna Farms Foundation seeks to serve the physical, mental, spiritual, and intellectual needs of our clients and communities through equine-assisted activities and somatic practices that enhance their overall well-being.
Partnerships
Donations, from individuals and businesses, to our general fund help us keep the farm activities available to our community and to expand garden area and services, as we build new partnerships.
Annual Goal: $20,000.00
Scholarships
All donations directly support scholarships for riders and for school groups to visit the farm for equine-assisted activities. We seek to provide 10 scholarships for weekly riding for 9 months of the year; $1,500 each.
Scholarship Fund Goal: $15,000.00
Animal Care
All donations to our animal care fund help cover the cost for feed and care of our animals; including veterinary care, farrier care, and special medications, supplements, and feed as well as staff to care for the animals year-round.
Animal Care Fund Goal: $40,000.00
SUSANNA FARMS FEATURED PARTNERS
We are proud of our partnership with CYN out of Grayslake which brings their credentialed mental health staff to the farm for equine-assisted programming for their Mentoring Program and their Growing Resilient Teens program. These partnered programs allow at-risk youth from all over Lake County to come to the farm, learn to groom, tack, and ride horses, and other animal care and gardening activities while engaging in group mental health conversations with CYN staff. The participants love coming to the farm and gain so much from our integrated approach to supporting their mental and emotional health.
