Goldrush Getaways, a full-service host travel agency based in Citrus Heights, CA, has announced that they have donated a cruise for two that will be made available for the silent auction to be held at this year's Healing Pastures, Blue Jean Ball Fundraiser. The fundraiser will take place on Saturday, September 23, 2017 between 4pm and 8pm in Auburn, CA. In addition to the cruise for two, Goldrush Getaways also made a financial contribution to the charity, which was delivered in the form of a check to their executive director, Honey Cowen.
Jeff Oestreich, president of Goldrush Getaways, says: "This is the third year in a row that we have been able to raise money within Goldrush Getaways to support the charity. We feel blessed for being able to support important programs like Healing Pastures, which is focused on helping youth and adults with special needs and is a certified PATH (People Acting To Help) Center."
Healing Pastures at C Horse Ranch, is dedicated to providing a healing environment focusing on courage, confidence and care. Staff and volunteers are committed to the philosophy that clients are treated with compassion and respect. It is a place of learning for both clients and staff. In the equine therapy that is provided, the horses, most of whom were rescued, partner with clients to form a bond that is often everlasting for both.
Honey Cowan is a lover of all animals and an established equestrian, with C-Horse Ranch heritage. The Healing Pastures ranch opened its doors in 1998, using 10 acres to serve the community. Their promise is "Success in the Saddle and in Life", which they deliver in their PATH Center-certified ranch. Cowen is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), registered nurse (RN), hypnotherapist, and equine therapist, and she uses her background to help people overcome trauma and other challenges with horses. Her background in clinical care has shown her that horses have the power to help in healing, as well as in character building.
Meanwhile, Goldrush Getaways is committed to supporting important community efforts, believing that these are vital to obtaining a higher quality of life. This is something that shines through in all that they do, and is also frequently commented on by their clients, as seen on http://goldrushgetawaysreviews.com. Julio B., for instance, says: "I'd like to express my gratitude for the level of service provided by Goldrush Getaways for really exceeding my expectations... Your agents made booking our cruise a wonderful experience that I will be sure to brag about to friends & family."
