Donations

Candlelight Ranch is wholly dependent on contributions to build additional facilities, acquire activities equipment, and build an endowment to meet operational costs. Without government assistance or corporate sponsorship, we need angels like you to help us continue providing special needs kids with a life-changing Candlelight Ranch experience. All donations go directly to benefit our campers.

Children enjoy the company of Candlelight Ranch horses.

Our 2009-2010 fundraising goal is $1 million dollars. This year’s funds will go toward designing and building a second treehouse cabin with connecting walkways, a Ropes Course, a small "water park" for cooling off during the summer, and a multi-purpose center that can house camp activities, dining, and sleeping. Contribute all or just a part of these items. Every donation, no matter how much or how little, is deeply appreciated.

Give for Another

You can make your tax-deductible donation in the following unique and deeply appreciated ways:

• In the name of a loved one
• In memory of a family member or friend
• In honor of a graduate, a birthday, anniversary, or special occasion

We'll send a card letting the person know that you donated to our special needs kids in their name. Just indicate your preference on the donation form.

A tax-deductible donation of $10, $20, $30, $50 or more every month would help us immensely with our planning and operational costs.

Donate to our Wish List

Perhaps there's something you've been wanting to replace, upgrade, unload, or donate that’s sitting in your house, garage, closet, or office. Maybe that "something" would make a difference to a child who might otherwise never have the opportunity to experience it. You can make a difference! Check out our Wish List.

Call 512.323.5300 if you have an item to donate that you don't see on the list. Thanks for thinking of us!
