A Recap of the Horsepower for Healing Fundraiser 2024

We raised over $25,000 - Thanks to you!

The 2nd Annual 2024 Horsepower for Healing event was a tremendous success! With over 80 attendees, the evening was filled with vibrant conversations, locally-sourced food, refreshing drinks, live music, silent auction and exciting raffle prizes—all in support of Bridle Paths’ mission to create authentic connections through equine-assisted services. This memorable event underscored the power of community and connection, building momentum for even greater impact in the future.

Our heartfelt thanks go to our four event sponsors and our 10 incredible table sponsors, whose financial support and commitment to raising awareness were essential to our success.
