I spent most of the day doing paperwork that is much over due.  I was writing thank you's for our Amplify Austin event!  

What an amazing experience it was to be a part of I Live Here I Give Here's event.  Because we were a part of this historical event, we were able to get additional training on online giving not to mention the publicity of being a part of such a huge event.

Not only did Amplify Austin surpass it;s goal of raising a million dollars for Austin non-profits by raising over 2.8 million dollars, but we surpassed our goal.  We had budgeted to raise $2000 but because of amazing support from old friends and new, we raised over $3700.  My hope was to raise the 7% that was deducted for fees from the event frm the "Amplification" and we did that!  So really every dollar earned from individual donations to Healing with Horses Ranch will go directly to providing services to our amazing clients!  Thank you all so much!

Now we are on to the next events and services.  Stay tuned for more information on Regional Special Olympics on April 14th, the Estate/Garage Sale that will be on April 20th, and summer camps!  Yup, it is official we are going to have our first summer camps in July.  3 individual week long camps of "Own Your Own Horse for a Week"!
