OHT Makes Second Donation to Ironstone Farm
Operation Hat Trick is pleased to announce a recent donation to Ironstone Farm for a second consecutive year.
Ironstone Farm helps veterans who are returning from combat and may be experiencing post-traumatic stress and any other anxiety. The Veterans Program is designed to help these veterans adjust to their non-combat lives.
Founded in 1960, Ironstone Farm was originally a breeding, training, and rehabilitative facility for thoroughbred performance horses. Throughout the years, owner Richard Donovan and his family have created programs to assist individuals whose lives have been challenged by disability. In 2013, the Equine Encounter Program for US veterans was developed. Through therapeutic riding, recreational riding and hippotherapy, Ironstone Farm uses horses and the working farm environment in an effort to help individuals achieve optimum quality of life.
Founder and president of OHT, Dot Sheehan, stated “Operation hat Trick understands the need at Ironstone Farm but only after visiting and hearing firsthand the issues those in the retreats are dealing with. We knew that we had to help and the best way for us to do that was make a longer term commitment so all would benefit.”
OHT generates awareness, support and funding for the recovery of America’s wounded warriors, both active service members and veterans. OHT pursues these goals through the sale of OHT branded merchandise, proceeds of which are distributed to selected organizations that provide direct services to our wounded warriors.
