On the “Third Sunday” of each month, RVUUF gives away the Sunday Service’s offering to an organization that embodies our values, principles, and mission in the world. This Sunday, February 18, we will give to HOPE Equestrian Center in Eagle Point. Please be as generous as you can to them.

“HOPE Equestrian Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing therapeutic horseback riding to individuals with physical, emotional and learning disabilities. HOPE began in the Rogue Valley in 1988 and has been in operation since 1994. Each year HOPE provides services to individuals with a wide range of disabilities. We work with families and professionals to design a riding program that directly benefits each individual’s therapeutic goals.
Our goal is to offer our participants the opportunity to ride horses for therapeutic benefits for a wide variety of physical, emotional and learning disabilities. Each year, many of the handicapped clients served at HOPE are low income/Medicare eligible. Generous donations from individuals and businesses in our local communities, along with those from regional and national organizations enable HOPE to continue to serve those with little or no financial resources. With support from people like you, our program here at HOPE can continue to serve the therapeutic needs of disabled and disadvantaged individuals in the Rogue Valley and surrounding areas.”
