These kids love to be a part of ranch life on the Lazy H Ranch in Mason, TX. Here's Tuffy making sure that the horses are okay. We take these young men out on the ranch to learn important skills, such as: working cattle, fixing fences, general property maintenance, decision making, and so much more. These skills will enable them to enter the job market, become self-dependent, and fulfill their dreams.

In addition, we help these young men overcome the pain of either not knowing their biological parents or experiencing a dysfunctional relationship with them. Many of the kids who ultimately come to us have spent years on the foster care merry-go-round. Many are emotionally damaged, have been abandoned repeatedly, lack trust, and have no hope for the future. Our greatest joy is in providing a safe place for them to heal and mature into adulthood.

Tuffy's birthday was September 2^nd, a celebration we will never forget. Armando, who is the only earthly dad he's ever had a positive relationship with, gave Tuffy a surprise birthday party. His smile was golden.

This is just one of the stories among the many kids who pass our way. It's also the motivation that keeps us moving forward to impact more and more of those who have been left-behind or abandoned during the critical years of their lives. Every dollar you give goes to support kids like Tuffy. If you would like to become a sponsor, click here to find out more.
