    Smiling Goat Ranch is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has helped hundreds of children and adults. From day one we made a vow never to let fees hinder healing; therefore, all of our program needs — including animal feed and care, supplies, and handlers — come from donations and grants. With a $120,000 annual budget, we are incredibly grateful to those who are in a position to join us with their support.
