Soulstride is entirely volunteer-run.

No paid staff.
No corporate funding.
No giant rescue budget behind the scenes.

Just humans showing up every single day to care for this herd and continue building something we deeply believe matters.

And lately, something really beautiful has happened:

We’ve grown to over $700/month in recurring donations.

That may not sound massive to some people, but to us, it means there are people choosing to stand beside this work consistently — and that matters more than we can explain. 🤍

But to truly feel stable and sustainable as an organization, we still need more consistent monthly support.

Realistically, another $2,000/month in recurring donations would allow us to breathe a little easier operationally, and our long-term goal is around $3,500/month total in stable support.

Not because we’re trying to become some huge operation.

But because steady support changes everything for a rescue.

It means:
• less operating from emergency to emergency
• more proactive care instead of reactive care
• more ability to say yes to horses who need help
• better infrastructure and rehabilitation support
• more educational and community offerings
• more nervous system capacity for both the humans and horses here

When basic care feels consistently covered — hay, feed, farrier work, rent, supplements, veterinary needs — it allows us to focus more deeply on what we’re actually here to do:

healing the herd.

And that healing extends beyond horses.

Many people tell us:
“I could never do what you guys do.”

And that’s okay.

Not everyone is meant to physically run a rescue.
But people can help sustain the ones doing the work.

That’s what community care looks like.

Soulstride is becoming more than a rescue. We’re creating a space for connection, education, horse wellness, nervous system healing, and community rooted in compassion and respect for both animals and humans.

This is just the beginning.

If you’ve been wanting to support this mission in a deeper, long-term way, becoming a monthly donor genuinely helps create stability for this herd and the future we’re building together.
