Mission
STRICKER SUNSHINE RESCUE RANCH IS MORE THAN JUST A RANCH; IT IS A RESCUE WHERE THE BROKEN FIND SOLACE, THE NEGLECTED REDISCOVER CARE, AND THE FORGOTTEN ARE GIVEN THE CHANCE TO SHINE ONCE MORE. HERE, WE DEDICATE OUR HEARTS, HANDS, AND RESOURCES TO RESCUING, REHABILITATING, AND REHOMING HORSES IN NEED. EVERY HORSE THAT ARRIVES AT OUR GATES CARRIES A STORY. SOME HAVE SUFFERED FROM NEGLECT, OTHERS HAVE BEEN ABANDONED, AND MANY HAVE KNOWN NOTHING BUT HARDSHIP. BUT THROUGH PATIENCE, LOVE, AND UNWAVERING COMMITMENT, WE TRANSFORM THEIR PAIN INTO POSSIBILITY. OUR TEAM WORKS TIRELESSLY TO NURSE THESE MAGNIFICENT CREATURES BACK TO HEALTH, TO REBUILD THEIR TRUST IN HUMANS, AND TO SHOW THEM THE KINDNESS THEY HAVE ALWAYS DESERVED. NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE GENEROSITY OF OUR COMMUNITY, THE DEDICATION OF OUR VOLUNTEERS, AND THE UNWAVERING SUPPORT OF THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN OUR MISSION. EVERY DONATION, EVERY HOUR SPENT TENDING TO THESE ANIMALS, EVERY VOICE THAT SPEAKS UP FOR THEIR WELFARE
Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

No independent contractors reported.
Who gave
Contributor names are not public for this form type.
Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.
Finances
Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Funders of this organization
4 grantors reported grants to this organization, $59,214 in all, tax years 2023 to 2025. Exact: the grantor wrote this organization's EIN.

Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
