  • Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. - Lamentations 3:22-23. . Happy Friday from the herd! . . #CORRALcary #CORRALnc #CORRAL #ncfarm #horsetherapy #summermornings #ncnonprofit
  • Happy #CowAppreciationDay!! Unfortunately, we don’t have any cows on our farm, but we do own a goat who thinks he’s a horse and looks kind of like a cow! That’s close enough, right? 😉. . . #SpottheGoat #CORRALriding #CORRALcary #ncnonprofit #ncfarm
  • After 25 long and wonderful years of life, our Thoroughbred Chester passed away this past Saturday evening. He was known for his safe demeanor, perceptive nature and super sweet face. Chester was one of the original horses that helped start CORRAL over a decade ago, and since then he has helped change the lives of hundreds of young girls. For many of those girls, Chester was the first horse that they made a connection with. He taught them the ropes on riding principles such as liberty and natural horsemanship, and made them each smile in ways that humans simply could not. More than that though, Chester was an encourager, he was able to boost confidence in the most insecure girls to help them become the strong women they are today. Chester leaves behind a legacy here at CORRAL that will not be forgotten, but remembered by all of us. Today we would like to encourage you to celebrate Chester’s life with us by choosing live selflessly in a way that helps and uplifts everyone around you, no matter what the cost. . . My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:12-13
  • Happy 4th of July from CORRAL! We hope you all have a day full of friends, family and good times! In honor of the holiday, we like to celebrate the women who helped get our country to where it is today, and the women who are continuing to fight for the future women of America, like U.S. Womens Soccer superstar Megan Rapinoe! We have loved watching Rapinoe and the rest of the U.S. Women's Soccer team advance in the Women's World Cup while bringing awareness to the equal pay gap and social justice for women. We hope their incredible World Cup run empowers girls across our nation to use their voices and stand up for equality in America! . . . 📷: @uswnt #CORRAL #CORRALcary #ncnonprofit #4thofjuly #oneteamonenation #girlempowerment
  • New blog post alert! Did you know that as of this December, NC will no longer be the last state in the U.S. to charge 16 and 17 year olds as legal adults? This change in the juvenile court system is known as the "Raise the Age" bill, and while it's a big movement in the right direction for helping juveniles, it comes with a greater cost of funding juvenile justice community programs (just like CORRAL!). . The awesome news is that YOU, yes, YOU! Have a say in how much should be spent on the new budget for community programs! Learn more about the budget proposal and how you can raise your voice on Raise the Age on our blog! (link in bio). 📷: Raise the Age NC Facebook Page . . #CORRALcommunity #CORRALcary #raisetheagenc #JCPCfunding #ncnonprofit #raiseyourvoice
  • Recently, we had the opportunity to invite a few NC Juvenile court counselors on the farm for a tour and horse demo! These counselors will be working closely with the increased population of juveniles in the court system once Raise the Age is passed this December. During their visit, they learned about the mission and impact of CORRAL, and were given a glimpse into how our horses and our girls help each other become whole again. . . #CORRALcommunity #CORRAL #CORRALcary #ncnonprofit #raisetheagenc #horsetherapy #ncfarm
  • That Friday feeling after a busy week is almost as awesome as Spot's "fist bump" (we know it's actually a head bump, but we won't tell him that!) The CORRAL staff has spent this week reflecting on the past year and planning for the next, and we are ready for the weekend, how about y'all?!. . . #HappyFriday #CORRAL #CORRALridingacademy #CORRALcary #CORRALcommunity #ncnonprofit #ncfarm #empoweringgirls
  • Giving a special shoutout to our friends from @baeringgroup having their corporate work day with us this morning! We put them to work by helping us clear a new pasture with the repurposed trees that we made into usable wood! Thanks y’all for beating the heat and #takingtheleap with us!. . . #CORRALcommunity #CORRALcary #ncnonprofit #ncfarm #volunteersrock
  • We took our girls out on the lake yesterday for a day of sunshine, water sports, and fun! Special thanks to @320watersports for letting us come out and spend the day on their boat!!. . . #CORRAL #CORRALcommunity #lakedays #ncnonprofit #ncsummer
  • Since our volunteers are now on summer break, our horses are picking up the slack and doubling as “lawn mowers!” Instead of having our cowboys mow the lawn in the June heat, we let Alchemy and Starbuck snack on the grass in the office yard. This lets us keep our lawns manicured and our horses happy, it's a win for everyone!. . . #CORRALriding #CORRAL #horses #ncfarm #ncnonprofit #summerdays
