At GaitWay, our Dream Maker program is what started it all. Watching the natural transformation that the barn assistants at Grit & Grace Ranch underwent, simply by working shifts at the barn, led us to create a structured program where we can use horsepower to empower.

The Dream Maker program is an equine facilitated learning program that teaches girls, ages 13-17, entrepreneurship, leadership, essential life skills, and strength of character. We use horsepower to empower the girls to literally-and figuratively-get back in the saddle. At GaitWay we provide horsemanship lessons, mentorship, and employment training through their work at a fully functioning horse ranch. The Dream Makers' work and interaction with the horses also teaches them essential life skills like confidence, discipline, work ethic, empathy, leadership, responsibility, dedication, teamwork, communication, perseverance, and grit (which is the number one definer of lifelong success).

As part of learning fiscal responsibility and work ethic, GaitWay girls have been tasked with raising recurring monthly income to help us care for the horses that take such good care of them. Your recurring monthly donation will help us buy hay, food, supplements, medications, vet care, chiropractic care, and farrier care for the horses that serve the girls in our programs.

Your financial support of GaitWay will allow the horses to continue to serve the current girls in the program, as well as allow us to grow and serve girls & women for years to come. Thank you so much for being here. We are honored to have you as a part of our GaitWay team.
