BUILDING A BARN – PART 1 – The Jewels' Angels Foundation, Inc.

PEERING THROUGH THE WINDOW OF TOMORROW – BUILDING A BARN PART 1

When we started this process for advocating the production of building an emotional support horse therapy ranch back in the year 2019, we had no idea how we were going to make this goal come true.

At first, we looked for a property in Temecula, California. We found a lovely parcel of land with the hopes of building our horse ranch there. Due to life’s mysteries, we were pulled out of California and into Missoula, Montana. Once in Montana, we registered The Jewels’ Angels Foundation as a foreign non-profit organization, allowing us to provide our serves in three states, California, Montana, and Washington, while our headquarters remain in California.

As time would tell, our foundation was presented with an amazing opportunity to start our building in the small, quaint town of Anaconda, Montana, about ninety miles from Missoula, strengthening our business model. We are proud to be calling Anaconda our new location for our beautiful program, Jewels’ Angels Ranch.

Our emotional support horse therapy program will be servicing Western Montana, within the communities of Anaconda, Deer Lodge, Butte, Missoula, Helena, and Phillipsburg, to name a few. However, it doesn’t matter how far away you are because all are welcome.

We are so excited to have started building our horse barn. We are still on course for our grand opening in the summer of 2025.

Horse therapy offers a number of benefits, both physical and emotional, fostering a non-verbal communication between a horse and a teen by strengthening the emotional bond, allowing them to communicate without words. Our program will include the following:

Physical benefits

Balance
Muscle building
Strength
Relaxation

Emotional benefits

Building self-esteem
Empowerment
Patience
Regaining trust
Feeling acceptance
Improved concentration
Self-respect
Confidence

Continue to follow us on our journey establishing a safe place for teens and young adults to learn more about themselves, their strengths, and their ability to overcoming challenges and struggles that young people face daily. Every young person will learn more about horses, caring for them, and loving them. They will also learn about themselves, improve their self-esteem, confidence, self-empowerment, and self-love. As individuals and as a community, our program will be effective because you matter, and we do not experience this journey alone. And always remember, you are not alone.
